This question can technically not be answered. an organism can not be parasitism commensalism or mutualism because these are all interactions between two organisms, not an organism by itself. So, it really depends on what it is interacting with and how. Parasitism is a relationship between two organisms where one is negatively affected and the other is benefited. Ticks, tapeworms and lice on/in dogs or humans are among these. Commensalism is where one species is benefited and one is not affected at all. One example is woodpeckers and some species of owls. The owls will make homes and reside in the holes in trees result of some species of woodpeckers. Mutualism is a relationship where both species mutually benefit. One instance is the honey badger and honey guide. The honey guide is a bird and the honey badger is, well, a badger and both of these organisms feed on honey. The honey guide will find a hive then a badger and lead the badger to the hive. The honey badger will then break open the hive and feed on the honey. the honey badger has thick skin and will not be harmed by bee stings. The honey guide will then feed on the leftovers.

What are animals that live off host organisms called?
Parasitism .
Why will parasites die if the host was killed?
if the host dies the nutrients die with it so parasites will die as well, until they find a new host
What are the lives of parasites supported by?
You worded your question pretty confusingly.Parasites live off the host that they are infecting, so technically the parasites are begins supported by the host itself. The role of the parasites are to infect a suitable host and start eating their energy up. That could result in the death of the host, when the population of the parasites grow.partnershostsholderscarriers
How do parasites obtain nourishment?
Parasites obtain nourishment by feeding on the host organism's tissues, cells, or bodily fluids. They may directly absorb nutrients from the host's bloodstream or digest tissues for nutrients. Some parasites rely on a specialized feeding structure to extract nourishment from the host.
What are proliferous parasites?
Proliferous parasites are those that proliferate, or reproduce freely and rapidly, within the human body. Such parasites can cause the host serious problems by reaching dangerous levels very quickly after the person is infected.
Is bacteria the same as parasites?
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 that live inside their hosts?
Endoparasites are parasites that live inside their host's body. These parasites can reside in the digestive tract, blood vessels, tissues, or organs of their host. Common examples include tapeworms, nematodes, and flukes.
How the parasites avoid the host's defenses?
they are snidy
What is a ectoparasite?
Are parasites that live on the surface of the host.
What harmful organism lives on a host?
Parasites
What a ectoparasite?
Are parasites that live on the surface of the host.
Do parasites multiply?
Yes, parasites can multiply within their host by laying eggs or producing larvae. This allows them to increase in number and potentially cause harm to the host's health.
