Wood is a fibrous, hard structural tissue that can be found in the roots and stems of trees and other woody species. Wood has been used as fuel for thousands of years and as a building material for thousands. It is an organic material. It is a natural mixture of cellulose fibers embedded within a matrix of lightening that resists compression. Sometimes wood is only defined as secondary xylem within the stems of trees. Other times, it can be defined to include the same tissue in other tissues such as tree roots and in other plants like shrubs. It is a support function in a tree, which allows it to support the growth of woody plants. It is also responsible for transferring water and nutrients to the leaf and other tissues. Wood can also be used to refer to other plant materials that have similar properties and to material made from wood chips, fiber, or wood chips. The most popular uses of wood were furniture and construction. Wood carving refers to woodworking that uses a cutting tool (knife), one-handed or two-handed chisels, one hand on the chisel, one on the mallet and one on the chisel. This creates a wooden figurine or figure, or ornamentation on a wooden object. This phrase can also be used to refer to the final product, which could include individual sculptures or hand-crafted mouldings that make up a tracery.
