Reproduction. a characteristic of living organisms is the
See lessprocess of producing offsprings. possessing features
similar to those of parents. In multicellular organisms,
the mode of reproduction is generally sexual, which
involves fusion of two kinds of gametes to form an
offspring. Some living organisms also reproduce by
asexual means.
Some examples of organisms arc given below
(i) Fungi multiply and spread very fast by producing
millions of asexual spores. Some fungi, the
filamentous algae and the protonema of
multiply by fragmentation.
(ii) In yeast and Hydra, budding occurs to produce
new organisms, whereas, in Planaria (flatworm),
true regeneration of fragmented body parts
occurs. These parts in turn grow as a new
organism.
(iii) Unicellular organisms like bacteria, algae and
Amoeba reproduce by increasing the number of
cells, i.e., through cell division (growth is
synchronised with reproduction).
Some organisms like mules, sterile worker bees, infertile
human couples, etc., do not reproduce. Hence,
reproduction also cannot be an all-inclusive defining
characteristic of living organisms. However, it is an
important differentiating characteristic of living
orgasnisms from non-living things as the latter do not
reproduce.
What is the growth?
Living things grow with increase in mass and increase in number of individuals or cells. In multicellular organisms, growth occurs by cell division or increase in number of cells. This growth occurs continuously in plants throughout their lifespan, whereas in animals, it occurs only up to a certainRead more
Living things grow with increase in mass and increase in number of individuals
See lessor cells. In multicellular organisms, growth occurs by cell division or increase in
number of cells.
This growth occurs continuously in plants throughout
their lifespan, whereas in animals, it occurs only up to a
certain age . However, growth, replacement of lost cells,
occur throughout the
In unicellular organisms, growth can be observed under
the microscope by simply counting the number of cells
via in vitro experiment. Such organisms grow by cell
division. Since, in unicellular organisms, a single cell
constitutes an individual, therefore, in such cases, cell
division is basically a means of reproduction.
Non-living things like mountains, boulders, sand dunes
also grow in size, but just by accumulating the material
on their external surface. Thus, growth in living things is
internal, while in non-living things, it is external.
Growth, therefore cannot be taken as the sole defining
criteria for living organisms. It must be accompanied by
the specific conditions under which it can be observed in
all living organisms. It is to be noted that a dead
organism does not grow.

The earth is a home for diverse forms of living organisms in different habitats.
See lessAll thesc living organisms constitute •The living world’. These organisms live in
various habitats like forests. mountains, deserts, oceans, freshwater bexlies, hot
springs. polar regions and almost every place of thc earth. Living things possess
certain characteristics, which make them different from non-living things.

Narmada water falling from higher altitude, the water
starts flying like white smoke, due to which this
waterfall has been called as Dhuandhar waterfall.
