Short Answer based questions
a) Why is mistletoe called a partial parasite​

Answer 1

Answer:

The mistletoe is dependent on a bird called flowerpecker to disperse its seeds. So when the bird disperses the seeds it sticks on to the barks of trees or to the stem or branch of the plant and takes only the raw materials from the plant (host). This makes mistletoe a partial parasite.
