Answer:

Human life starts from a single fertilized cell. The constant interaction with the environment results in the growth and development of the innate capacities, abilities and potentialities of the child.

Meaning of Growth: In general, growth means the growth of different parts of human body and the ability of those parts to work The physical growth affects our Behavior and vice versa. Thus growth means - shape and growth in weight. This includes growth of muscles also. Herbert Sovenson has called physical growth as “big and heavy’.

Meaning of Development: The word ‘Development’ indicates towards changes related to Growth and moves towards maturity. Due to Qualitative and Quantitative changes, man's form and creation changes. Thus development is a process of maturity. Physical growth depends mostly on physical development. Due to the fundamental relation between Development and Growth they are used for each other.

According to Jersild, Telford and Sawrey, “Development refers to the complex set of process involved in the emergence of a mature functioning organism from fertilized ovum.” E. Hurlock said, “Development is not limited to growing layer. Instead it consists of progressive series of changes Towards the goal of maturity.”E. Hurlock also said, due to development new abilities grows in a man.

Growth and Development : The terms growth and development are often used interchangeably. But in fact they are conceptually different. Growth refers to quantitative changes in size which include physical changes in height, weight, size, internal organs etc. We observe that as an individual develops old features of his, like his body fat, hair and teeth etc disappear. In their place come various new features like facial hair etc. When maturity comes, the second set of teeth and primary and secondary sex characteristics, etc. appear. Similar changes occur in all the aspects of the personality.

Growth and Development can be understood as under

Growth: During infancy and childhood, the body of a person steadily becomes larger, taller and heavier. It is growth. Thus, it is evident that growth involves changes in body proportions as well as in overall stature and weight. The term growth thus, indicates an increase in bodily dimensions.

Development: Development refers to the various qualitative changes taking place simultaneously with quantitative changes of growth. Thus, development may be defined as a progressive series of orderly and coherent changes. To understand development these terms are to be explained:

1)Progressive: The term progressive denotes that changes are directional. They lead forward that changes are directional. They lead forward rather than backward.

2)Orderly and Coherent: These terms suggest that there is a definite relationship between the changes taking place and those that precede or will follow them. Thus, development represents changes in an organism from its origin to its death. It is the series of overall changes in an individual due to the emergence of modified structures and functions that are the outcome of the interactions and exchanges between the organism and its environment.
