Answer 3

Depends on the species of flatworm. Planarians live in fresh water streams, and eat small invertebrates like mosquito larvae. They are harmless to us (and fun to catch.. they are cross-eyed- sorta cute, actually!) Other Flatworms are terrestrial, and devastating to gardeners- these huge worms are voracious predators of earthworms. Bad news for gardeners who have worm-composting bins outside. (These are invasive alien flatworms, and many states would have you report one in your yard...feel free to "neutralize" that kind of flatworm!)

Other flatworms are parasitic. They feed off of a live organism. (Not nice, but hey- nature doesn't have to be nice. It just "is". ) Examples are tapeworms. Flukes are also flatworms. There are liver flukes, lung flukes, and others. They are devastating, and can infect humans.

Parasitism is a fascinating subject to learn about. (Gross, but I think it's a "cool gross"... if you get what I mean! In the US, we are SO fortunate to not have to deal with the vast majority of these creatures that kill millions of people every year simply due to lack of clean water or sanitation. I took one semester of parasitology in college, and yes, it was totally gross. But it turned out to be one of my favorite subjects!
