The correct answer is A. Parasite.

Explanation

In Biology, a parasite plant is a plant that obtains part of the nutrients or all nutrients from another plant. There are around 4100 species of these plants in the world. Its main characteristic is its roots knows as haustoria, which is a type of root that penetrates the plant where it lives to get nutritions. 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. So, the correct answer is A. Parasite.

The Dura is the outermost meningeal layer and lies directly under the vertebral column bones and skull. The subdural space is the space between the Dura mater and the Arachnoid mater.

The Arachnoid mater lies in the middle of the Dura and Pia mater. Under the Arachnoid layer is the subarachnoid space which contains the cerebrospinal fluid. The cerebrospinal fluid acts as a shock absorber and a cushion to the brain and spinal cord.

The Pia mater lies under the subarachnoid space and directly on the spinal cord and brain and is highly vascularised.
