2 Scheme S1. Graphical illustration for the drawing of the polar plots. The center of the picture is chosen as the specify origin, then the Distance is the relative distance between the cells and the specify origin, and the Angle is the angle between the long axis of the cell and the oriented growth direction. Then plot the polar plot
