Can you eat a tapeworm with out knowing it?
Yes. You can ingest the tapeworm larvae and they grow in your digestive system into an adult.
When cats eat flea eggs do they hatch into worms?
Yes....By swallowing a flea infected with a tapeworm larvae. This process begins when tapeworm eggs are swallowed by flea larvae (an immature stage of the flea). Contact between flea larvae and tapeworm eggs is thought to occur most frequently in contaminated bedding or carpet. Next, the pet chews or licks its skin as a flea bites; the flea is then swallowed. As the flea is digested within the pet's intestine, the tapeworm hatches and anchors itself to the intestinal lining.
What is the prognosis for a patient with tapeworm disease?
Serious problems from tapeworm infections occur when tapeworm eggs are consumed and the larvae localize in tissues outside the digestive tract (cysticercosis). Prompt diagnosis and treatment of this condition is necessary.
What is a sentence for microhabitat?
A desert pool is an example of a microhabitat.
What is a Beef tapeworms habitat?
The beef tapeworm's habitat is one of two places. When it is in larvae form, the beef tapeworm will be found inside of cattle. When it is a matured adult, you would find it inside of humanintestines; where a person has ingested beef that was infected with tape worm larvae.
The larvae of many common tapeworm species that infect humans are usually found?
encysted in the muscles of an animal, such as a cow or pig.
Why tapeworm cause taeniasis in vegetarian people?
Tapeworm eggs can be passed to others through poor hygiene. For example if your vegetarian meal is prepared by a person with tapeworm and poor hand hygiene, the tapeworm eggs can be passed to you. This means you do not get infected with a worm (in your intestines) but with worm larvae which enter your body. (thus if anybody should eat you, they would get a tape worm).
How can humans catch tapeworms and how can humans tell if they have tapeworms?
It is possible to "catch" a tapeworm by ingesting the eggs. If you eat food or drink water contaminated with feces from a person or animal with tapeworm, you are ingesting microscopic tapeworm eggs. For example, a pig infected with tapeworm will pass tapeworm eggs in its feces, which gets into the soil. If this same soil comes in contact with a food or water source, it becomes contaminated. You can then be infected when you eat or drink something from the contaminated source. Once inside your intestine, the eggs develop into larvae. At this stage, the larvae become mobile. If they migrate out of your intestines, they form cysts in other tissues such as your lungs or liver. Invasive tapeworm infection is more common with pork tapeworm than with the other kinds. Contact with infected fecal matter is not the only way to get a tape worm though.You can ingest larvae cysts in meat or muscle tissue as well. When an animal has a tapeworm infection, it has tapeworm larvae in its muscle tissue. If you eat raw or undercooked meat from an infected animal, you ingest the larvae, which then develop into adult tapeworms in your intestines.Adult tapeworms can measure up to 50 feet long and can survive as long as 20 years in a host. Some tapeworms attach themselves to the walls of the intestine, where they cause irritation or mild inflammation, while others may pass through to your stool and exit your body.Typically, you'll have most of the following symptoms;NauseaWeaknessLoss of appetiteAbdominal painDiarrheaWeight loss and inadequate absorption of nutrients from food

How common do house cat's get worms?
Perhaps you have heard of a pet cat that has had worms. The cat did not get the worms by eating the directly. The hosts for the tapeworm larvae are usually fleas. The host fleas are infested with the tapeworm larvae. When the cat cleans itself, it swallows the fleas. The tapeworm larvae on the fleas change into tiny tapeworms. They then live and grow as parasites in the intestines of the cat. The tapeworms produce eggs and fertilize the with sperm. The fertilized eggs are carried out of the cat's body as waste.
