semiparasitic
Semiparasitic refers to an organism that not only sources nutrients from its host but can also photosynthesize or use other sources for nutrients. These organisms partially depend on their host for survival but can also sustain independently to some extent. These organisms might directly or indirectly cause harm to their hosts. Such relationships often occur in the plant world, where semiparasitic species attach themselves to the roots or branches of host plants.
