What is parasitic mode of nutrition? Explain with examples.

Explanation:

Examples of parasitic mode of nutrition are mosquito, ticks, lice, bedbugs , tapeworm

because lives on the body surface or inside the body of other organism called host.

ANSWER 2 ) Organisms that live in or on other organisms and acquire food at the expense of its host are called parasites. Most parasites are harmful to the hosts’ health; sometimes, they even kill the host. Both animals and plants may serve as a host. Unlike commensalism, the parasite causes some harm to its host. A few examples of parasites are louse on a human head, Cuscuta plant and tapeworms.

Cymothoa exigua is an unusual parasite. It is also known as the tongue-eating louse and is aptly named so as it is found in the mouth of the marine fish Lithognathus. It essentially severs the fish’s tongue, cutting off the blood supply and causing the tongue to fall off. The louse then attaches itself to the remains of the tongue and essentially acts as the fish’s new tongue.
