What makes wood stable?

Chef's answer
Grain patterns can influence the way wood behaves as it adjusts moisture content. Wood that's cut from the heart of the tree is generally more stable against shrinking and warping. Very straight grain with only 1/32 in (about 0.79 mm) between grain lines is less likely to warp, regardless of wood species.
