Tapeworms can reproduce by fission or budding?
Tapeworms reproduce sexually by producing eggs that are released into the environment with the host's feces. These eggs must be ingested by an intermediate host, such as a flea or a mouse, before they can develop into infective larvae. Once inside the intermediate host, the larvae can develop into adult tapeworms and complete their life cycle.

Why did the scientists did not considered the tapeworms as part of annelids?
Tapeworms are part of the phylum platyhelminthes. They are long, flat, parasitic worms that are adapted to life inside the intestines of their hosts. Tapeworms are the simplest animals to have three embryonic germ layers, bilateral symmetry and cephalization. They are NOT annelids because that phylum consists of animals with segmented bodies that are separated by septa. Each segment performs special functions. Most annelids reproduce sexually, while tapeworms reproduce asexually by fission.
What is the interdependence between human and tape worm?
The interdependence between humans and tapeworms is a parasitic relationship. Tapeworms rely on humans as hosts to obtain nutrients and reproduce, often causing health issues such as malnutrition and digestive problems in their hosts. While humans do not benefit from this relationship, the presence of tapeworms can indicate certain environmental conditions or hygiene issues. Overall, this relationship highlights the complexities of host-parasite dynamics in ecosystems.
How do Tapeworms reproduce?
Tapeworms can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Mature proglottids (segments that make up the body of a tapeworm) contain both male and female reproductive organs. Sperm from a tapeworm will fertilize the egg--either from the same tapeworm or a different one. The proglottid containing the fertilized egg will break off from the body and burst to release the zygote. The zygote is then released through the feces of the host. Zygotes are then consumed by a new host--their primary host--, grow, burrow, form a cyst, and begin the process again.
Are tapeworms considered living?
Tapeworms are very much concidered "living" slissified under kingdom Animalia (animals:birds,bears,bees etc), Class : Platyhelminthes (Greek: flat worms) and Order : Castoda (parasitic worms). They have all the "classic" characteristics of living organisms: Reproduce, grow, undergo metabolic respiration and they die.
What is a shark tapeworms host?
Shark tapeworms primarily inhabit the intestines of various shark species, including those from the families Lamnidae (mackerel sharks) and Carcharhinidae (requiem sharks). They can also infect other marine animals, such as rays and some bony fish. These tapeworms utilize their hosts to absorb nutrients from the digested food in the host's gut, allowing them to thrive and reproduce.
