How does the growth of an organism occur?

Growth of an organism is characterized by an increase in the size of its body. This occurs due to accumulation of food substances in the cells which in turn increases the volume of the protoplasm in the cells. This increase in volume of cells results in growth. However, its necessary to understand the fact that cells do not increase in their volume indefinitely. After a considerable period of time they divide into two through processes such as mitosis. These divided cells again increase in volume and redivide after they become large. Bassicaly, the organism eats and gets nutrients from what it eats which causes it to grow.
