Organisms that hunt and kill other organisms for food are called predators.
Fungi and Bacteria that gain nutrients from once living organisms are called decomposers. Organisms that gain nutrients from living organisms is called parasites.
Organisms that secure food by eating other organisms are called consumers. They obtain nutrients by consuming other living organisms.
from what i know about parasites(which is very little), they use their host's food as a food source. I'm guessing that the organism in question is the host to the parasite. Also, parasites like tapeworm are beneficial to humans because they can stop bowel cancer!
Green plants, they are called photosynthesizers
Parasites.
These organisms are called parasites.
Organisms that eat other organisms are called consumers or predators.
Parasitism .
Sounds like you're talking about a parasite.

Parasitology is the study of parasites, which are organisms which obtain nourishment and protection from other living organisms. Parasitology is closely related to cell biology, biochemistry, and ecology.
Fungi and Bacteria that gain nutrients from once living organisms are called decomposers. Organisms that gain nutrients from living organisms is called parasites.
They are all classified as organisms, which are living beings that have the ability to carry out biological processes such as growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli. Each of these groups plays a specific role within an ecosystem, contributing to its overall functioning and biodiversity.

Single-celled parasites are called protozoa, while multi-celled parasites are referred to as metazoan parasites. Protozoa include organisms like Giardia and Plasmodium, which can cause diseases such as giardiasis and malaria, respectively. Metazoan parasites encompass a variety of organisms, including worms (helminths) like tapeworms and flukes, as well as ectoparasites like ticks and lice. Both types of parasites can have significant impacts on human health and ecosystems.
