Worm
The Ascaris Worm is a parasite to humans.Like many other parasites, it usually leads a live-and-let-live existence, doing little damage to its host. But unlike many, the roundworm Ascaris lumbricoides is the largest of the human intestinal parasites.
Ascaris is commonly referred to as the "children's worm" because it primarily infects young children who are more likely to engage in behaviors that facilitate transmission, such as playing in contaminated soil or not practicing proper hygiene. The eggs of Ascaris lumbricoides can survive in the environment for long periods, making it easy for children to accidentally ingest them. Additionally, malnutrition and weakened immune systems in children can make them more susceptible to these infections.
