Answer to Question #350770 in Zoology for Mr.Vk

Question

why dead organism does not grow

Answer 1

Dead Things – Things which once formed a part of some living plant or animal, but now show no trace of life are called dead things. 

The growth of an organism depends on the proliferation of cells. In order for cells to multiply, metabolism must take place in the cell. that is, the processes of assimilation and dissimilation. these processes do not occur in dead cells. therefore, dead organisms do not grow.

No non-living object is capable of reproducing or replicating by itself.
