TRAQ Practice Exam questions with verified
answers
a general term for various types of new wood produced in response to
damage or loads in order to compensate for higher strain (deformation)
in the cambium and outer wood cells is called Ans✓✓✓ response
growth

mobile
A reasonable method to quickly assess immediate risks in a large
population of trees is Ans✓✓✓ level 1 limited visual; drive by

impact immediately
Cankers are more likely to affect tree stability if Ans✓✓✓ more than
one third of diameter effected
Compression or extension of new wood cells under bending loads is
greater than the deformation experienced by inner wood cells because
