Answer:
A parasitic plant is a plant that derives some or all of its nutritional requirement from another living plant. They make up about 1% of angiosperms and are found in almost every biome. All parasitic plants have modified roots, called haustoria, which penetrate the host plant, connecting them to the conductive system
Species of parasitic plants also differ with regard to whether they need the host in order to complete their life cycle. Obligate parasites have an absolute requirement for a host, whereas facultative parasites can live and reproduce in the absence of a host.
