Growth is invariably associated with differentiation. For example, when a seed germinates it does not simply increases in size but form seedlings. Differentiation is a permanent, localised qualitative change in size, biochemistry, structure and function of cells, tissues or organs, $e \cdot g .$, fibres, vessels, tracheids, sieve tubes, mesophyll, leaf, etc.
