(a) Arithmetic Growth Rate The expression of arithmetic growth is exemplified by roots (or organ) elongating at constant rate. On plotting the length of an organ against time, a linear curve is obtained. Mathematically it is expressed as Constant linear growth, a plot of length L against time = Length of time ‘ ’ = Length of time to = Growth rate or elongation per unit time |
