Which of the following rows correctly describes the difference between predation and parasitism?

Select one:
a.
Predation
The host species is unharmed, and its life is sustained to benefit the other species.
Parasitism
The host species killed or barely left alive to benefit the other species.

b.
Predation
The host species killed or barely left alive to benefit the other species.
Parasitism
The host species is unharmed, and its life is sustained to benefit the other species.

c.
Predation
The host species is killed to benefit the other species.
Parasitism
The host species is not killed, but its life is barely sustained to benefit the other species.

d.
Predation
The host species is not killed, but its life is barely sustained to benefit the other species.
Parasitism
The host species is not killed, but its life is barely sustained to benefit the other species.

I think it is C but I am confused about "host species". Does "host species" mean prey in this case?
