Always harmful to their host
Fungi and Bacteria that gain nutrients from once living organisms are called decomposers. Organisms that gain nutrients from living organisms is called parasites.
parasites
False. Foods that allow microorganisms to grow are not called parasites; they are referred to as "perishable" or "potentially hazardous" foods. Parasites are organisms that live on or in a host and depend on it for nourishment, but they are not the same as the microorganisms that can grow in food.
A relationship in which one kind of organism lives on or in another organism an may harm the organism is called parasitism. The organisms that live on or in other organisms are parasites. The organisms they feed on are called hosts. The parasites benefit from the relationship. The hosts are harmed by it. JUST TO LET YOU KNOW I GOT ALL THIS INFORMATION FROM AN AUDUBON TRADITIONAL ELEMENTARY SCHOOL!
No, bacteria and parasites are different types of organisms. Bacteria are single-celled microorganisms that can be beneficial or harmful, while parasites are organisms that live on or inside another organism (the host) and rely on the host for nutrients and shelter. Parasites can be bacteria, but not all bacteria are parasites.
Parasites.
These organisms are called parasites.
Parasitism .
Sounds like you're talking about a parasite.
Parasitology is the study of parasites, which are organisms which obtain nourishment and protection from other living organisms. Parasitology is closely related to cell biology, biochemistry, and ecology.

Parasites
Single-celled parasites are called protozoa, while multi-celled parasites are referred to as metazoan parasites. Protozoa include organisms like Giardia and Plasmodium, which can cause diseases such as giardiasis and malaria, respectively. Metazoan parasites encompass a variety of organisms, including worms (helminths) like tapeworms and flukes, as well as ectoparasites like ticks and lice. Both types of parasites can have significant impacts on human health and ecosystems.
Organisms that feed on each other are called parasites. There is the host (the one that is getting used) and the parasite (the one who sucks the blood). Organisms like ticks are parasites, sucking on human or dog blood. (You have probably seen them on your arms/legs)
