How long does the Cymothoa exigua live?
Cymothoa exigua, commonly known as the tongue-eating louse, typically has a lifespan of about 2 to 3 years.

The duration of its life can vary based on environmental conditions and the health of its host.

What are two animals that illustrate parasitism in the ocean?
Two examples of parasitism in the ocean are the parasitic isopod, Cymothoa exigua, and the oceanic lamprey.

Oceanic lampreys, on the other hand, latch onto fish and use their toothy, suction-cup mouths to feed on their host's blood and bodily fluids, often leading to severe harm or death for the fish.
