Humans are considered free-living organisms, as we are capable of obtaining our own food and energy from the environment. While we rely on resources from the environment to survive, we are not considered parasitic because we do not solely depend on a single host for our survival.
Planarians are free-living flatworms, flukes are parasitic flatworms that infect various host animals, and leeches are blood-feeding segmented worms.
Some examples of organisms that belong to Phylum Nematoda (nematodes) include roundworms, hookworms, pinworms, and filarial worms. These organisms are characterized by their long, slender, unsegmented bodies and are found in a wide range of habitats worldwide. Nematodes can be free-living or parasitic, impacting plants, animals, and humans.
Nematodes are a diverse group of worms that are found in various habitats worldwide. They can be parasites or free-living, and play crucial roles in nutrient cycling and decomposing organic matter. Some nematodes can also be harmful to plants, animals, and humans.
Wild animals are animals that live in their natural habitats and have not been domesticated by humans. Pets, on the other hand, are animals that have been domesticated and kept by humans for companionship or work. Wild animals typically have their own instincts and behaviors, while pets rely on their owners for care and guidance.
Organisms can be grouped as free-living or parasitic. A parasite is an organism which lives in or on another organism, from which it obtains its food. Since humans do not do this they are not parasitic, and so must be free-living.
free-living! We don't live on or in other organisms.

No, not all roundworms are parasitic. While some roundworms are parasitic and can cause infections in animals and humans, there are also free-living roundworm species that live in various environments such as soil, freshwater, and marine habitats.
In a technical sense, almost all animals are parasitic. but to answer your question there are more free willing animals then parasitic animals.

Free-Living
Protists are free living.

Most mollusks are free-living but there are a few that are parasitic.
The difference between a free-living organism and a parasitic organism is their habit. A free-living organism finds a way to survive anywhere but a parasitic organism has to find a host in order to survive.A free living organism can find/ hunt/ or produce it's own food, while a parasitic organism must attach itself to a "host" in order to gain nutrients.
