Whats the difference between the procambium and the vascular cambium? Answer The primary plant body (root system and shoot system) are composed of three tissue systems, the dermal tissue system, the vascular tissue system and the ground tissue system. These tissues are produced by primary meristems which are: the procambium, ground meristem and protoderm. These three primary meristems are produced by apical meristems during primary growth. The procambium produces primary xylem and phloem, the protoderm produces primary epidermal tissue and the ground meristem produces primary ground tissue. The vascular cambium is a lateral meristem that produces secondary xylem and phloem in plants that exhibit secondary growth. Vascular cambiums arise from procambiums.......!! MeeNu
