Answer:

Parasites derive their energy from living organisms. Saprophytes are a plant, fungus, or microorganism that lives on dead or decaying organic matter. Parasite an organism that lives in or on another organism (its host) and benefits by deriving nutrients at the host's expense.

Answer:

A Saprophytic is a plant, fungus or microorganism that lives in or on the outside of a decaying organic matter.

A parasite is a organism. It gets its nutrition from other living organisms. Which is called a host.
