Solution

The correct option is C Growth is exhibited only by non-living things.
Non-living things like mountains and rivers grow by accumulating materials on the outside. When they accumulate materials they grow in size and mass.

Living organisms exhibit growth by accumulating cells on the inside. Hence growth is not only exhibited by non-living things but also by living organisms.
