Can the term growth and development be used interchangeable?

The two Words can be used interchangeable as the definition of growth has a few meanings, one of which is "a process of growing especially through progressive development or increase".

However, the term of "growth" would not aways be interchangeable in certain situations. So, depending on the context of its use, development might seem to be more descriptive. This is because the Word has levels of description that surpasses the one for simply growth.
