Question

Is growth a chemical process ? If yes, can it be represented as a chemical equation?

Answer 1

Growth of a human body is both a physical change as well as a chemical change. Growth involves change in the overall size of human body and a change in any one of the physical properties (like shape, size, colour, and state) is called a physical change.

It is also a chemical change because it is a biochemical process regulated by hormones and enzymes.
it is a chemical chage because in chemical chage new substances will be formed even in a plant growth a seed changes to a seedling and that into a plant or tree and the characters and appearance changes
We can not be represent it as a chemical equation always.. In some cases it is possible
