What is the benefit of having two hosts for a parasite?

What does the parasite life cycle refer to?
The parasite life cycle refers to the series of developmental stages that a parasite undergoes to reproduce and spread. This cycle often involves multiple hosts, with different stages occurring in different organisms, such as definitive and intermediate hosts.

Understanding this cycle is crucial for controlling and preventing parasitic infections.
