Answer D is correct
Parasitism is generally defined as a relationship between the two living species in which one organism is benefitted at the expense of the other. A parasitic relationship is one in which one organism, the parasite, lives off of another organism, the host, harming it and possibly causing death. The parasite lives on or in the body of the host. A few examples of parasites are tapeworms, fleas, and barnacles.
