### process | growth:

Bacterial growth
* Most bacterial growth is inhibited in very acidic conditions.
* Most bacterial growth occurs at levels
  - optimal levels
* can also cause serious problems during extended mashing
  - begin as soon as a product is opened or contaminated by human hands
* causes destruction of the fetal villi and abortion of an autolyzed fetus.
* is increased by temperature, moisture, and the breakdown of cell walls
  - the cause of body odor
* slows down in the fridge, but the bacteria can survive refrigeration temperatures.

Body growth
* begins begins to grow more proportional making the fetus look more human-like.
* starts from the neck region, so the oldest proglottids are at the posterior end.

Bone growth
* demands calcium.
* is dependent on the availability of calcium.
* poses a challenge because it requires a blood supply.

Breast growth
* Some breast growth occurs in women.
* serves purposes.

Cell growth
* Most cell growth requires nutrients
  - synthesis
* increases the population of cells with one or two mutations.
* involves increase in cell number as well as size.
* is stimulated and the skin glows with a healthy, more vibrant look.
* occurs by the addition of wall material along some of the margins of the thecal plates
  - during the early stage of fermentation
* requires DNA replication via DNA polymerase
  - that certain genes be turned on
* results in development.

Church growth
* is hard when so many young men die
  - influenced by such factors as parking space and the size of classrooms
* occurs when members of the church exercise their diverse gifts in ministry.
* represents the seriousness of the people.

Cognitive growth
* appears to stop once substance abuse becomes habitual.
* is based on a child's ability to acquire sets of rules.

Crystal growth
* can occur only after nuclei are formed.
* is accomplished by repeated pattern, results in shape and physical properties
  - affected by four naturally occurring factors
* occurs from a saturated solution.
* precarious balance between crystallization and dissolution.

Dendritic growth
* begins at the tip of the stinger tube.
* is the common mode of solidification encountered in casting and welding processes.

Embryonic growth
* Most embryonic growth depends on mitosis.
* Some embryonic growth takes places.
* depends directly on mitosis

Exostosis
* Exostoses commonly point away from the joint
  - grow throughout childhood, but usually ossify at the end of skeletal growth
  - result from an overgrowth of bone
* are growth.
* is growth
  - preventable by following some basic safety precautions
  - the medical term for an abnormal growth of bone within the ear canal

### process | growth:

Exponential growth
* Most exponential growth occurs in environments.
* can lead to some surprisingly large numbers very quickly.
* describes unregulated reproduction.
* increases at a given rate during a period of time.
* involves patterns that are based on multiplication rather than addition.
* is any change in numbers with time that occurs at a constant per capita rate.
* is growth that doubles every time it grows, like cancer
  - without limit
  - one pattern of how technology changes
  - real, but so are limits to growth
  - the same as compound interest in economics
* lasts for nine generations.
* means big things can happen quickly
  - that as the population gets larger, it grows at a faster rate
* occurs when a quantity grows by the same percentage in each unit of time
  - some quantity regularly increases by a fixed percentage

Fetal growth
* is of principal concern in perinatal surveillance.
* takes place at a low oxygen tension which favours lipid anabolism for brain growth.
