A parasite is an organism that has a deleterious symbiotic (Symbiosis (Gr. for "living together")) relationship with another organism or "host" species during one, several, or all of the stages of it's life cycle.

Parasitism is a special case of symbiosis in which only one species benefits. Mutualism and commensalism are the other two cases.* From Latin sensu stricto ("in the narrow sense").From Latin parasitus < Greek παράσιτος (parasitos), "'person who eats at the table of another'")* 1. (biology) A (generally undesirable) living organism that exists by stealing the resources produced/collected by another living organism. Lice, fleas, ticks and mites are widely spread parasites. 2.
