Verified by Experts

The correct answer is:

In unicellular organisms like Chlamydomonas and Amoeba:

• Growth and reproduction are the same process.

• When the cell divides, it increases the number of organisms (cells).

• There is no separate multicellular body formation.

So, increase in cell number = growth + reproduction together.
