There are plants that are parasites on other plants. One example is mistletoe, which parasitizes trees. These could be considered parasitic herbivores.
They would be 'parasites.'
No. Herbivores eat only plants which is why they are called herbivores. A creature that eats plants AND meat is considered omnivorous (an omnivore).
The most general answer is a consumer, which is then divided into carnivores (which eat other animals), herbivores (which eat plants) and detrivores (which eat non-living organic material).
Sexual fish considered a harder target for the parasites their clones adapt to new conditions
yes cornovours are consumers.
They do not live on or in the body of a host
Predation refers to an interaction between two species where one species (the predator) completely consumes another species (the prey), resulting in the death of the prey species. Since plant consumers (herbivores) usually don't kill the plant, a plant is rarely considered prey.Animals that consume parts of other animals, but don't kill the host are called parasites. Plants can host parasites(both plant and animal), such as mistletoes and aphids). Although herbivores are usually not considered to be parasites, a semantic case can be made to include herbivores among parasites.
They would be 'parasites.'
Herbivores are not considered parasites because they primarily consume plant material for sustenance, which does not typically harm the host plant in a way that is detrimental to its survival. While herbivores may negatively impact individual plants, they generally do not live off of or exploit their hosts in a manner that leads to the host's death or significant harm, which is a characteristic feature of parasitism. Instead, herbivory can often be part of a natural ecological balance, allowing for plant growth and regeneration.
Herbivores
It depends on the species. Insect larvae may be decomposers, predators, herbivores, or parasites.
some are parasite and some are scavengers
yes !
