Answer:

1. PARASITIC NUTRITION.

Latin word ‘Parasitus’

Meaning- Feeding on  another living organism

The plants absorb nutrients from another growing plant.

They are called PARASITES.

The plant from which it derives nutrition is called a HOST.

Usually parasitic plants develop special roots, which penetrate into the tissues of the host plant to take nutrients. Example Cuscuta (dodder),mistletoe.

In a parasitic relation, only the parasite benefits.

It harms the host plant by slowing down its growth and sometimes causing heavy damage.
