Yes, growth occurs when cells divide and increase in number, leading to an increase in overall size of the organism. This process is controlled by a combination of genetics, hormones, and environmental factors.

Why do the cells take up a regular shape of human body ie why don't they grow in some other shape?

The DNA instructions turned on in particular cells tell these cells how to grow. Also there are two usual " mechanistic " reasons cells do not grow all over the place. Cells are substrate dependent and mas dependent. This means they grow on something that can give them a general shape and they only grow so many to a certain area/volume. Cancer cells are such a problem because they don't conform to either of these constraints.
