The criterion used to classify hosts as intermediate hosts or as definitive hosts is the kind of reproduction of the parasite, sexual or asexual, within the host. The host within which the sexual reproduction stage of the parasite occurs is the definitive host. The host within which the asexual reproduction stage of the parasite occurs is the intermediate host.
