Chapter 33.4, Problem 3SB
Summary Introduction
To review:
The steps in the primary growth of a leaf and the structures that result from the process.
Introduction:
The primary growth process is responsible for making the primary plant body. The cells of the apical meristem (shoot apical meristem and root apical meristem) divide and elongate causing the elongation of the plant body and thus the primary growth of the plant.

Show the sequence of secondary growth by drawing the row of cells from the boxed area below and labeling the vascular cambium cell (V), 5 xylem cells from oldest (X1) to youngest (X5), and 3 phloem cells (P1 to P3). Show what happens after growth continues by drawing and labeling a row with twice as many xylem and phloem cells. How does the vascular cambium’s location change?
