    Parasitism is one version of symbiosis ("living together"), a phenomenon in which two organisms which are phylogenetically unrelated co-exist over a prolonged period, usually the lifetime of one of the individuals.

    Endoparasites. Ectoparasites. Giardia lamblia - just three examples of parasitism. Bet you could find more from a Google search.

    I'll leave it to you to decide which is the parasite.
