Solution
The correct option is B Growth
Cellular organisation, response to stimuli and metabolism are defining characters of living organisms. These characters are seen exclusively in living organisms.
But growth is exhibited by both living organisms and non-living things like mountains and rivers. Hence growth is not a defining characteristic of living organisms.
