Answer:

A parasite is an organism that lives in another organism, called the host, and often harms it. It depends on its host for survival.

Without a host, a parasite cannot live, grow and multiply. For this reason, it rarely kills the host, but it can spread diseases, and some of these can be fatal.

Parasites, unlike predators, are usually much smaller than their host and they reproduce at a faster rate.

Organisms that feed on each other are called parasites. There is

the host (the one that is getting used) and the parasite (the one

who sucks the blood). Organisms like ticks are parasites, sucking  

on human or dog blood
