Does parasites allows microorganisms to grow?
Parasites can provide a niche or environment for microorganisms to grow by altering the host's immune response and creating conditions that are conducive to microbial growth. Some parasites can also modulate the host's microbiota to favor the growth of certain microorganisms that may be beneficial for the parasite's survival.
What is the reason that parasite fungi can kill their host and continue to thrive?
spores
How does a parasite benefit?
Sometimes it is advantageous for a parasite to kill their host if this improves the likely hood of transmission into a new host or continuing onto the next part of their life-cyle.'Virulence' is the degree of aggression that the parasite shows toward the host. Maximum virulence would often kill the host. However, the parasites ability to be virulent might result in a diminished ability in other fitness components such as transmitability. Therefore it is a trade-off between the parasites ability to harm the host for nutrients and its own ability to reproduce; maximising its life-time reproductive success. i.e the maximum virulence might not be the optimum virulence.Reasons why not killing the host with maximum virulencemight be beneficial; the host shelters the parasite, a source of nutrients (food), hosts movements helps parasite dispersal and presense of same species individuals in host (dis- competition for space/resource's, adv- opportunities to find a mate.)
What do you call the habitat of a parasite?
The habitat of a parasite is called a host. The host provides the environment for the parasite to live, feed, and reproduce.
What do you call a parasite that causes no harm to the host?
A commensal parasite. This type of parasite benefits from the host organism without causing harm or benefit to the host.

In a parasitic relationship is either of the 2 harmed?
Yes, a parasitic relationship is beneficial to the parasite but not to the host. The host usually suffers because of the parasite
Why do parasites weaken but not kill their hosts?
The parasite keeps the host alive because the host is its source of everything. If the host dies, the parasite dies.
Why is it beneficial for a parasite to allow its host to live?
Allowing the host to live benefits the parasite by providing a stable environment for it to thrive and reproduce. If the host dies, the parasite loses its source of nutrients and shelter, which can threaten its own survival.
Why does a parastie not kill its host?
If the parasite doesn't kill it's host - it can live off the host for longer and doesn't have to find a new host.
What is the reason that parasite fungi can kill their host and continue to thrive?
spores
What is parasit host?
A parasitoid host is an organism that a parasite or parasitoid lives on or in, deriving nourishment at the host's expense. The host can be a plant, animal, or even another parasite. Parasitoids eventually kill their hosts, whereas parasites typically do not.
Why does it harm a parasite to have its host die?
It harms a parasite to have its host die because the host is what the parasite depends on. If the host dies then the parasite will have nothing to depend on and die.
