By the sun, air , and water. The living thing like plants use water to grow the roots suck up water to drink. Air or carbon we breath out help plants grow too. Finally the sun helps make plants process their own food or plant sugar and that is how plants grow!

In plant organisms however mitosis only takes place in areas called "meristems" apical meristems for horizontal growth (along the way to make the plant wider) and lateral meristems for vertical growth (up and down the way to make the plant taller). :)

Which is difference between bacteria and viruses that shows that bacteria are living organisms and viruses not?
Bacteria are able to reproduce on their own while viruses need a host to "hijack" so they can reproduce. Bacteria have metabolisms, catabolic and anabolic biochemical reactions going on in their cells all the time. Viruses do not. Bacteria can grow in size to a certain extent while viruses do not change in this regard. The definition of living things classify bacteria as a living thing, while viruses are not.
Is water a nonliving object?
water is not a living object.Given the basic attributes of living matter:1.) Growth- water does not grow.2.) Movement- Water moves with the presence of external force.3.) Response to Stimulus- water does not pat you back when you pat it. right?therefore, water is not a living object. properties of living matter are not manifested by it.Wrong!Water is an object. Grow? as in changes in size and shape? Yes- it does that. Movement- Yes it moves without external force- it evaporates, the vapor turns into rain... etc... Response to stimulus- it most certainly does! Think about movement in plate tectonics, one small movement and water can respond in extreme ways.

What are ecoysystems?
An ecosystem is an area that can produce nutrients and sustain life. Ecosystems can be any size, from the vast rainforest of the Amazon to a small woodland area or a tiny pond perhaps at the bottom of a garden. There are also different types of ecosystem. They vary from place to place around the world as well as between and within areas such as woodland, moorland, streams, farms and even cities. These variations are due to largely to the different physical conditions that exist in any particular location and they can be studied using a system approach.

What is the biological sciences of activities that all living things carry out?
If you mean the 8 things all living things have in common, they are as follows: 1) All living things are highly organized and contain many complex chemical substances. 2) All living things contain one or more cells. 3) All living things use energy. 4) Living things have a definite form and have a limited size. 5) Living things grow. 6) Living things respond to changes in the environment. 7) Living things can reproduce. 8) Living things eventually die.
What three main characteristics are used to classify living organisms?

How organs grow?
Organisms grow by cell division or mitosis which causes increase in number of cells , and then by increase in size of cell .
What is concept of growth?
It is the irreversible increase in size and mass of the living cell or living being. Nonliving objects like crysal grow in size but it is from outside, not from within outside.
