Answer:
Primary phloem is laid down by the apical meristem and develops from the procambium. Secondary phloem is laid down by the vascular cambium to the inside of the established layer of phloem.
The secondary phloem is a type of phloem that forms from the vascular cambium during the secondary growth. The secondary growth is responsible for the growth in girth in plants, especially trees. The vascular cambium is the meristematic tissue involved in this type of growth.
