The answer is C , predators often kill their prey while parasites don't kill the host .

Parasites are organisms that live at the expense of another organism, called the host
Predators capture and feed on another organism, called the prey

 Parasites do not kill their host, but predators often kill their prey.

So, I believe that the answer is C
