Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which process causes the body of multi-celled organisms to grow larger?
A
growth of individual cells
B
proper nutrients and a good nights sleep
C
cell division by mitosis
D
cell division by meiosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Binary fission is similar in concept to the mitosis that happens in multicellular organisms (such as plants and animals), but its purpose is different. When cells divide by mitosis in the body of a multicellular organism, they cause the organism to grow larger or replace old, worn-out cells with new ones.

Detailed explanation-2: -In multicellular organisms individual cells grow and then divide via a process called mitosis, thereby allowing the organism to grow.

Detailed explanation-3: -All cells are produced from other cells by the process of cell division. Cell division occurs when one cell divides to produce two new cells. Unicellular organisms use cell division to reproduce. Multicellular organisms use cell division for growth and repair of damage such as wounds.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mitosis is a process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells that occurs when a parent cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells. During cell division, mitosis refers specifically to the separation of the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus.
