Absolute growth rate (AGR) : Increase in total growth of two organs or organisms is measured and comparison of total growth per unit time is called absolute growth. Absolute growth rate is the total growth per unit time.

Absolute growth rate (AGR) : Increase in total growth of two organs or organisms is measured and comparison of total growth per unit time is called absolute growth. Absolute growth rate is the total growth per unit time.Relative growth rate (RGR) : It is growth per unit time per unit initial growth.
