Hey friend,
Here's your answer,
Parasite is a small plant that lives on or inside another animal or plant and gets its food from it.
It lives on or within the host cell for all of or part of its life.
It may cause harm to the host or might just weaken it.
However,
Pathogens are disease causing organisms that definitely cause harm to the cell. The organisms that are pathogenic in nature surely cause disease in the host organism.
Hope this helps!!!!!
