Can tapeworms have ribbon-like sections that contain reproductive organs?
That is true but very early in development they also carry a digestive system. The beef tapeworm, can grow up to 20 m (65 ft). As the worm grows it produces segments. Each segment contains an independent digestive system and reproductive tract. By the time a segment has reached the end of the worm's tail, only the reproductive tract is left. The segment then breaks off, carrying the tapeworm eggs out.
What is the function of the individual segments of a tapeworm?
>taken from my biology book< a tapeworm grows by adding sections directly behind its head. each body segment produces both eggs and sperm from separate male and female reproductive organs. the eggs and sperm are released into the segment. once filled with fertilized eggs, the segment breaks off and passes out of the host's body.
