See question A parasitic relationship is one in which one party benefits from it while the host suffers adversely from it The relationship between a fetus and its mother is more like a symbiotic one, where one party benefits from the relationship and the host isn’t affected negatively or positively |

Uyiii: No.
There are at least 10 scientific distinctions between a parasite and a fetus.
A parasite is an organism of one species that lives in or on an organism of another species and receives nourishment from the host.
Parasites are invasive organism that come from an outside or external source. A fetus comes from an inside or internal source (ie fertilized egg)
Parasites are generally harmful to the hosts, fetuses may make a pregnant woman experience adverse health effects, but not nearly to the same level that a parasite generally does.
A parasite makes direct contact with the host's living tissues. A fetus lives in the placenta, fed by the umbilical cord, both of which are fetal tissue (ie the cells come from the baby).
When a parasite invades a host, the host tissue will usually respond by encapsulating the parasite in order to cut it off from other surrounding tissue. In the case of a fetus, the mother’s tissue will create a lining tissue that connects, rather than cuts off contact with other tissues (placenta lining).
Parasites usually elicit a surge of antibodies as an immunological response. With the fetus, however, a mother’s trophoblast (the shell of cells surrounding the embryo) will naturally block these antibodies so as not to reject the fetus. This reaction is only found in the embryo-mother relationship.
A parasite will generally weaken the cellular reproductive capacity of the host.For a fetus, the effect is the opposite.
Parasites generally stay with the host for life, a fetus leaves upon birth.
Parasitical relationships are mostly harmful and unnecessary to the host, generally damaging the host in a variety of ways. A newborn (fetus post-birth) is very healthy for the mother, bringing benefits of an emotional, cognitive and chemical nature.
The most obvious one, a fetus is a human being in development. It will never become anything other than human. Even a first trimester fetus will have fully developed arms, legs, ears, facial features, sex organs and a functioning heart, as well as sufficient neurological development to feel pain. A parasite is not a human and never will be. https://www.quora.com/Can-a-fetus-be-scientifically-and-biologically-categorized-as-a-parasite-If-not-how-does-it-fail-to-meet-the-criteria-for-oneGive Credit to the source. 1 Like |

125diCalcitriol: A fetus is not a parasite
A parasite is an organism of one species in or on an organism of other species & deriving nourishment from the host
A foetus is an organism of one species living in the uterine cavity of an organism of the same species and deriving nourishment from the mother. A dependent relationship, but not a parasitic relationship
A parasite is harmful to some degree to the host
A foetus does not usually cause harm to the mother, provided proper care & nutrition is provided by the mother |

KillaBeauty: See question A parasitic relationship is one in which one party benefits from it while the other one suffers from it
The relationship between a fetus and its mother is more like a symbiotic one, where one party benefits from the relationship and the other party isn’t affected negatively or positively So the vomitting, morning sickness, tiredness, swollen body, mood swings, pains, and ultimately labour wahala isn't negative or adverse effect No matter how you guys twist it, a baby is a parasite to the mother nutritionally or otherwise. A parasite isn't defined based on whether it is from the host or outside the host A parasite isn't defined based on it's inversive nature or otherwise. The most important attribute of a parasite is that it benefits from the host while causing harm to the host no matter how little the harm is . #EOD 1 Like 2 Shares |

Delivar: Here is a dictionary definition of a parasite:
Going by that definition, the keyword there is "without benefiting". Since pregnant women benefit from the foetus by obtaining the joy of having a baby then a foetus is not a parasite. and you skip the without killing it part to portray your point. as long as they're still living inside their host "their mother" they're definitely parasite... no grammar and long story |
