Parasitic flatowms typically live in the digestive system. Surrounded by pre-digested nutrients, they can easily absorb basic nutrients that they need to maintain homeostasis. In other words, they are borrowing the host's digestive system.
What else can I help you with?
Why do you think parasitic flatworms do not have digestive system?
Parasitic flatowms typically live in the digestive system. Surrounded by pre-digested nutrients, they can easily absorb basic nutrients that they need to maintain homeostasis. In other words, they are borrowing the host's digestive system.
What characteristic is shared by cnidarians and flatworms?
a digestive system with a single opening
What is a digestive system with only one opening called?
A digestive system with only one opening is called an incomplete digestive tract. Organisms with this type of digestive system ingest food and eject waste through their mouth.
Does a planarian have a one way or two way digestive system?
Planarians are classified underneath the flatworm phyla, and flatworms have two way digestive systems.
Why dont most parasitic flatworms need a complex digestive system?
Parasitic flatowms typically live in the digestive system. Surrounded by pre-digested nutrients, they can easily absorb basic nutrients that they need to maintain homeostasis. In other words, they are borrowing the host's digestive system.
Flatworms are characterized by having....... A. a central nervous system B. radial symmetry C. tentacles for filter feeding D. a complete digestive system?
central nervous system.
How flatworms get energy?
Different types of flatworms eat different types of food such as bacteria or protozoans. They send digestive juices out of the opening in their digestive tract to partially digest the food, then they suck all of this up back into their gastrovascular cavity where it is fully digested and provides energy to the flatworm.
Which system interact with digestive system?
i think endocrine
What are th two types of digestive system?
The two main types of digestive systems are the complete digestive system and the incomplete digestive system. A complete digestive system features a one-way tract, allowing for the efficient processing of food from ingestion to excretion, as seen in humans and most animals. In contrast, an incomplete digestive system has a single opening for both ingestion and excretion, typical of organisms like jellyfish and flatworms. These systems reflect different evolutionary adaptations to nutrient processing and absorption.
What kind of digestive system does a hydra have?
i think a hydra has a incomplete digestive system called the-gastrovascular system
What muscular tube is found near the mouth of the digestive cavity in flatworms?
pharynx
Flatworms are soft flattened worms that have tissues and internal what?
Flatworms have tissues and internal organs. They belong to the phylum Platyhelminthes and are characterized by their bilateral symmetry and lack of a coelom (body cavity). Their internal structures include a digestive system, nervous system, and reproductive organs, allowing them to perform various physiological functions.
