It is usually simply known as "host".
tapeworms may attach to host humans in their intestines. They constantly take in nutrients and the host is left tired hungry and sick.
It's called a parasitic relationship when one species benefits and one species is harmed. A simbiotic relationship is when both species benefit.
A symbiotic relationship is when both species need each-other to survive, for example the lynx and the hare. Without the hare the lynx would starve and without the lynx the hare would overpopulate. A parasitic relationship is where one species benefits and one is damaged.
A parasite is an organism which gets all of its energy from another organism without giving anything back. Examples of parasites include animals who suck blood, such as ticks, and plants like mistletoe. Successful parasites leave their hosts alive, but sometimes the parasite makes the host sick.
This is an example of a parasitic relationship. In this relationship, the tick benefits from feeding on the dog's blood while the dog is harmed by the tick's presence.

Both are a relationship between two organisms, called a symbiotic relationship. A parasitic relationship is when one organism gains at the other organism's expense. An example of a parasitic relationship is a tick. A mutualistic relationship is when both organisms gain from each other. An example of this would be honeybees and flowering plants.
The relationship is parasitic, as the lice takes blood, but returns no benefit to the human host.
The host is harmed while the parasite benefits.
The answer is parasitism, because parasites harm their host.
