Foods that allow microorganisms to grow are called parasites.*
true
false

The given statement is false.

Explanation:

When a plant or animal is able to live inside or on another living organism and is able to draw its nourishment from that living organism then it is known as a parasite.

For example, tapeworms, flees etc are parasites.

Since, food is a non-living thing so, there will be bacteria or other microorganisms along with parasites. But foods that allow microorganisms to grow are called parasites, is a wrong statement.

Thus, we can conclude that the given statement is false.
