Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Spring wood is formed in spring when cambial activity is high, producing vessels with wider cavities, while autumn wood is formed in winter with narrower vessels. The cambial activity contributes to the formation of both xylem and phloem, and the annual rings result from these seasonal variations in growth.
