The increase in size or mass of an organism occurring when the organism is in a symbiotic interaction. The process by which a multicellular organism, a unicellular organism or a group of unicellular organisms grow in a threadlike, filamentous shape. Any process specifically pertinent to the functioning of integrated living units: cells, tissues, organs, and organisms. A process is a collection of molecular events with a defined beginning and end. Increase in plant girth due to the activity of lateral meristems (vascular and cork cambium). The process by which the bud portion of a cell that reproduces by budding irreversibly increases in size over time by accretion and biosynthetic production of matter similar to that already present. The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell, where the increase in size or mass has the specific outcome of the progression of the organism over time from one condition to another. The increase in size or mass of an entire multicellular organism, as opposed to cell growth. The increase in size or mass of an organ. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that function together as to perform a specific function. The process by which a cell irreversibly increases in size over time by accretion and biosynthetic production of matter similar to that already present. The increase in size or mass of an entire organism, a part of an organism or a cell. The increase in size or mass of a cardiac muscle, where the increase in size or mass has the specific outcome of the progression of the organism over time from one condition to another. null Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the growth of all or part of an organism so that it occurs at its proper speed, either globally or in a specific part of the organism's development. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the rate or extent of growth, the increase in size or mass of all or part of an organism. Any process that activates or increases the rate or extent of growth, the increase in size or mass of all or part of an organism.
