Answers
Parasitic plants have the ultimate plant lifestyle. They get their food or water from another plant instead of making food or obtaining water on their own. The host does the heavy lifting and the parasite benefits. The relationship between the two plants can be very successful for the parasite, as long as it doesn't kill its host.
Parasitic plants often have root-like structures called haustoria which penetrate the host and enter its xylem or phloem. Xylem contains vessels that conduct water and minerals upwards from the soil. Phloem contains vessels that transport food made by photosynthesis downwards. The haustoria absorb nutrients and food from the xylem and phloem, which the parasite uses.
One interesting parasite is Rafflesia, which is also known as the corpse flower due to the distinctive odor that it produces. Rafflesia arnoldii produces the largest and perhaps the smelliest flower in the world. The mistletoe that is popular at Christmas is also a parasite, as is dodder, which often forms a heavy growth on its host and withdraws a considerable amount of food
