They cause schistosomiosis which is a serious disease that forms when the schistosoma eggs clog blood vessels, causing swelling and tissue decay in the lungs, liver, spleen, or intestines
The most common species of schistosomes that infect humans are Schistosoma mansoni, Schistosoma haematobium, and Schistosoma japonicum. Each of these species is associated with distinct geographical regions and transmission patterns.
Humans affect the biosphere in numerous ways. One of the most common ways in which humans impact the biosphere is by their extraction of Natural Resources. Growth and expansion is another way in which humans affect the biosphere.
The effects of liver fluke are referred to as fascioliasis, and includeanaemia, weight lossand sub-mandibularoedema. Diarrhea is only an occasional consequence of liver fluke. Liver fluke is diagnosed by yellow-brown eggs in thefeces.
Humans affect artificial selection by selectively breeding organisms with desirable traits, leading to changes in their genetic makeup over generations. By controlling the mating of organisms, humans can accelerate the process of evolution to develop specific characteristics in plants, animals, and other organisms. This process has been used in agriculture, animal husbandry, and even in pets to produce desired traits.
Fluke eggs are consumed by snails, where they hatch and develop into larvae. The larvae then leave the snail and infect other hosts to continue their life cycle. This relationship benefits the flukes by providing a suitable environment for their development, and benefits the snails by potentially reducing parasite load.
species of schistosomes . Schistosoma mansoni is widespread in Africa, the Eastern-Mediterranean, the Caribbean, and South America and can only infect humans and rodents.

Schistosomiasis is caused by parasitic flatworms of the genus Schistosoma. The most common species responsible for the disease are Schistosoma mansoni, Schistosoma haematobium, and Schistosoma japonicum. These trematodes, or flukes, typically inhabit freshwater environments and infect humans through skin contact with contaminated water, leading to significant health issues if left untreated.
Schistosoma indicum was created in 1906.

Schistosoma is not a nematode, is a genus of Trematode under Phylum Platyhelminthes meaning the flatworms, nematode are round unsegmented worms.
fluke bunt is a fluke bunt
liver fluke-tape worm
Yes.
Tape worm like lung fluke and liver fluke
the liver fluke worm lives in the liver and the bile ducts of domestic animals and humans
