The organisms which exhibit parasitic mode of nutrition are called as parasites. Parasites obtain their nourishment from other living organisms. In parasitic mode of nutrition, plants depend on other plants or animals for their nourishment. Such plants are called as parasites and the ones on which parasites depend are called as hosts.
e.g.Cuscuta is a parasitic plant which develops special roots called haustoria. Haustoria penetrate deep into host plant tissues and just absorb the nutrients from them.
