Also, these plants are classified into six groups: a plant that cannot finish its life cycle without a host; a plant that can end its life cycle without a host; a plant that is fixed to the stem of the host; a plant that is fixed to the root of the host; a plant that depends on the photosynthesis of the host plant; and a plant that does not depend on the photosynthesis of the host plant, which means it can make photosynthesis.
