Answer 1

Cambium is the lateral meristem that is present in vascular plants and it results in secondary growth.

Lateral meristems are of two types,

1. Vascular cambium- It gives rise to new vascular tissue.

2. Cork cambium or phellogen- It arises later to replace the ruptured epidermis of the expanding plant body.
