hitendra127: A parasite is an organism that lives in another organism, called the host, and often harms it. It is dependent on its host for survival - it has to be in the host to live, grow and multiply. A parasite cannot live independently. cucata is example of paracite
artisingh: in this mode ,the organism lives inside or outside the body of another organism.It takes nutrition from the other organism without killing it such ad organism is called parasites.ex.in plants cuscuta obtain nutrition from host,anf ascaris (roundworm)are parasites on human body
