Question

Mistletoe is a parasitic shrub. It extends its root-like structures into a host tree's branches to absorb its water and minerals. Birds spread mistletoe as they feed on the mistletoe's seeds and then deposit them in nearby trees as waste. When a tree has a large amount of mistletoe on it, the mistletoe can take away almost all of the tree's nutrients. An oak tree that is covered in mistletoe is shown below.
