Growth in organisms is basically defined as cell division before cells become specialised. Different parts of organisms grow at different rates and different times but growth can be measured as an increase in either wet mass, dry mass or height. Height and wet mass can be measured when an organism is alive, but dry mass can only be measured when an organism is dead, because then all the water can be removed. Despite this, dry mass is the best for giving a measure of growth. Dry mass is often used because it eliminates the fluctuations that you get from using wet mass due to its water content. This is evident in weighing plants, since they have a high level composition of water and this water content depends on the amount of water in its environment so using dry weight tends to be more reliable in this case as it gives an idea of mass change.

No a balance can not measure volume however it does measure mass. You can find the volume by using the balance to find the mass of what ever you want then if you know the density of the thing then you simply divide the mass by the density.
I found four ways, so take your pick :) 1) measure the uptake of CO2 2) measure the production of O2 3) measure the production of carbohydrates 4) measure the increase in dry mass

This cannot be sensibly answered. Milliliters (mL) is a measure of volume, dry ounces are a measure of weight or mass.
There are a few techniques to measuring plant growth. These include: measuring fresh weight, measuring dry weight, root mass, root shoot ratio. The Science Buddies website shows how one can measure plant growth using these techniques.

A kilogram is a measure of mass, not of weight. They are not the same thing!
