Sistotrema confluens is primarily classified as a saprophytic fungus. It feeds on decaying organic matter, particularly wood, helping in the decomposition process. While it does not engage in mutualistic relationships or act as a parasite, its role as a saprophyte contributes significantly to nutrient cycling in ecosystems.
According to botany the parasite live on live plant. when the plant dies parasite also will dies. but the saprophyte though the plant dies it will live.
The opposite of a saprophyte is a photosynthetic organism. Unlike saprophytes, photosynthetic organisms produce their own food through photosynthesis using sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide.
Clitocybe dealbata is typically considered a saprophyte, as it obtains nutrients from decaying organic matter. However, some sources suggest that it could have a mycorrhizal relationship with certain tree species, acting as a symbiont. It is not commonly recognized as a parasite.
Dodder is a total parasite . It is because the dodder plants absorbs water,mineral as well as food from the host. A partial parasite absorbs only water and minerals from the host as partial parasites contain chlorophyll.
Saprophytes are organisms that obtain nutrients from decaying organic matter, while parasites rely on living organisms for nutrients and harm their host in the process. Saprophytes help break down dead organic material, recycling nutrients in the ecosystem, while parasites may cause harm or disease to their host.

The opposite status is a "host" (the victim or target of a parasite).The opposite type of symbiote from a harmful or parasitic one would be a beneficial symbiote, a mutualist organism. (When internal, these are called endosymbionts.)

A lea is a parasite, but a parasite is not always a flea.
yes a louse is a parasite! :)
Intermittent Parasite is a parasite that visits and leaves the host at interval.
ethical parasite
Yes, it is a parasite!
No a jellyfish is not a parasite.
