Through parentId we can get the value ...

Through parentid. It is a polymorphic field. See the below link to which objects it is related.

Lets say your Attachment id is 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' and you can fetch parent id like below

String ParentID ;

for(Attachment Atc : [select ParentId from Attachment where id = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX' ])

{

     ParentID = Atc.ParentID ;

}

system.debug('========ParentID ========'+ParentID );
