Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The vascular cambium is a type of lateral meristem in plants that produces secondary xylem (wood) and secondary phloem. Tracheids, vessel elements, sieve-tube elements, and companion cells are all components of the secondary xylem and phloem. Phelloderm, however, is produced by the cork cambium (phellogen), not the vascular cambium.
