Mold is not classified as a parasite; it is a type of fungus. Unlike parasites, which live off a host organism and can cause harm, mold primarily thrives on organic matter, breaking it down and recycling nutrients in the environment. Mold can grow in various settings, particularly in damp or humid conditions, making it a common occurrence in homes and buildings. While it does not parasitize hosts in the traditional sense, it can have negative health effects, especially for individuals with Allergies or respiratory conditions.

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.
