The pair of organisms that can be in a parasite/host relationship is dogs and fleas. Fleas are parasites that live on dogs, feeding on their blood, which makes them a host. The other relationships listed (bees and flowers, snakes and mice, goats and grasses) do not represent a parasite/host dynamic.
