Parasite and saprotrophic nutrition belong to the heterotrophic mode of nutrition.

A mode of nutrition in which organisms obtain nutrition from dead and decaying matters is called the Saprotrophic Nutrition.
Parasitic Nutrition refers to heterotrophic nutrition, in which parasites depend on other living organisms for their food.

Symbiosis is a close relationship between two species in which at least one species benefits. For the other species, the relationship may be positive, negative, or neutral. There are three basic types of symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.
