A relationship in which one organism lives on or inside another organism and harms it is called parasitism. This is a form of a symbiotic relationship.

The term used for an organism living in or on another depends on the nature of the relationship.- If the relationship is mutually beneficial (mutalism) then the organism can be called a symbiont.- If the relationship does not benefit the host, the organism can be called a parasite.Parasites can be endoparasites, which live inside the host, or ectoparasites, which live on the host.Some biologists use the term symbiont for any organism in a close interaction with another. This would mean parasites could also be called symbionts.
The organism a parasite lives on is called a "Host".
parasite is the organism that lives on other organism without any benefit to the host.
