Pair of characters that are not observed in many living organisms are (A) Growth, Reproduction.
- Growth is the increase in cell counts or masses. Growth can be characterized as size increase and mass increase. Development can not be taken as a distinguishing property for living beings, since non-living beings too can rise
- However, an increase in the number of cells also promotes reproduction in the case of unicellular species.
- Growth and reproduction are not related, and can not be the distinctive element. There are some species that can't replicate, such as worker bees, mules, infertile human couples.
- Reproduction can not thus serve as the defining and distinguishing characteristic of living beings, while non-living objects can not replicate themselves.
