Question

Parasites are harmful for host plant? Give reason

Answer 1

Answer:

parasites are harmful for host plant because they take all the nutrients from the host and make it week

Answer 2

Answer:

Parasitic plant, plant that obtains all or part of its nutrition from another plant (the host) without contributing to the benefit of the host and, in some cases, causing extreme damage to the host plant.

eg. For example, the dodders (Cuscuta spp.) drop their seeds to the ground; these may remain dormant for up to five years before they find a host plant nearby.
