Question

When the cambium is less active which type of wood does it produce?

Answer 1

There are several distinct kinds of cambium found in plant stems and roots: Cork cambium, a tissue found in many vascular plants as part of the periderm. Unifacial cambium, which ultimately produces cells to the interior of its cylinder. Vascular cambium, a lateral meristem in the vascular tissue of plants.

Answer 2

Answer:

When the cambium is less active it produces autumn wood.

Explanation:

Different physiological and ecological elements control the cambium activity in plants. Climatic conditions are not uniform as the year progressed. Cambium is dynamic throughout the spring season, while it is less dynamic during the winters.  

Thus, during spring, an enormous number of xylem components are shaped which have more extensive vessels. During winter, less xylem components are shaped which have limited vessels. The wood framed during summer is called spring wood or early wood, while the wood shaped during winter is called autumn wood or late wood.
