Dear student,
Please find below the answer:
The correct option is (c).
The assertion is true. Parasites obtain nutrition from the body of the host without killing them. They release simple digestive enzymes either inside the body (if endoparasite) or outside the body of the host (if ectoparasite). In many cases, parasites cause harmful effects to the body of the host while in some cases they cause no harm at all.
Hope this clears your doubt.
Regards.
