i think growth ,maturation and development are three different things.growth is the increase in the physical structure of living organism.it is the increase in the organs of living things.growth is quantitive change in the bodies of living organism.
the development is the increase and expantion of mental capabilities of living organism.in other words,it is qualititive changes in the living organism.develoment is the improvement in the innante abilities of livings. for examle a person is said to be developed if he has outstanding abiliities lilke power of reasoning, logic,power of differenciation,and other abilities.
while the maturation is the combination of the above mentioned quantitive and qualititive changes in living organism.
