The mold is there because it has a role in which must be played in Nature-to break down organisms. It will take over the orange so it will be overcome by it. In a way it is a form of parasitism. I'm not sure if I would call it parasitism. A parasite usually affects a living organism, if the mold was growing off of a living orange tree then it would be a parasite, but as for an orange? I would consider it more of a decomposer then.
