In parasitic type of nutrition, organisms live on or inside the bodies of their hosts and feed on them.

Parasites get their nutrition from a type of nutrition known as heterotrophic nutrition. This means they are dependent on other organisms for food and energy. 

Parasites obtain nutrients from their host by absorbing them directly from the host's tissues or from the host's bloodstream.

There are various types of parasites, each with its own nutritional strategy. Some parasites, for example, feed on the host's blood, whereas others feed on the host's tissues or bodily fluids. 

Some parasites secrete digestive enzymes in order to break down their food before absorbing nutrients.
