A quasar is a galaxy the gives off huge amounts of radiation, sometimes having a black hole at it's center. A black hole is a dead star that was big enough to "curl back in itself, like a snake eating it's tail."1 Or picking oneself up and carrying yourself by your bootstraps.
One is a single star, one is a galaxy.

No, the biggest quasar is not capable of destroying the biggest supermassive black hole. Quasars are powered by the accretion of material onto supermassive black holes, so they are closely related. The interaction between a quasar and its host black hole is complex but does not result in the destruction of the black hole.
A quasar is believed to have a supermassive black hole at its center. The radiation is emitted outside the black hole's event horizon - from matter that is falling into the black hole.
No, a superheated quasar cannot escape a black hole. Quasars are extremely bright and energetic sources powered by accretion onto supermassive black holes, and their emissions arise from the material falling into the black hole. Once matter crosses the event horizon – the point of no return – it cannot escape the black hole, including the energy emitted by the quasar.
A quasar is a disk of superheated material falling into a supermassive black hole. The radiation from a quasar is so intense that it actually pushes matter away from the black hole, preventing it from falling in. This process limits how fast a black hole can grow.
The power source of a quasar is a supermassive black hole at the center of a galaxy. As material falls into the black hole, it forms an accretion disk that releases immense amounts of energy, generating the intense radiation emitted by quasars.
They are separate phenomenon and different principals are in action.

A quasar is a galaxy that is radiating massive amount of radioactive energy. A quasar MAY have a black hole at it's center. A black hole is just dead star that collapsed in on itself.

The quasar is bigger. A quasar is a disk of superheated matter that surrounds a supermassive black hole. The mass of the black hole may be greater than that of the disk, but it is compacted into a smaller space.
For one, a black hole can hardly be observed directly (the Hawking radiation is expected to exist, but it would be way too weak). A quasar (related to material falling into the black hole) is one way the black hole can be observed.Also, the quasar can play quite an active role in the formation of a galaxy.
Yes. A quasar is a disk of superheated material that sour rounds a supermassive black hole.
A Supermassive black hole .
It depends, Black holes can go from being microscopic to supermassive black holes that entire galaxies revolve around. It all depends on which black hole and which quasar.
Yes. In simplistic terms, a quasar is the result of a supermassive black hole. The gravitational attraction of the supermassive black hole on the galaxy, causes the effect of the quasar. See related questions for more information.
A big black hole.
No. A Quasar is a Black hole in center of some Galaxies. I think our Galaxy has one of them.
