Tapeworm.. I think.

To the person who answered tapeworm, it is definitely not the tapeworm, as the former is a flatworm and not a roundworm.

The most common roundworm that infects humans is Ascaris lumbricoides. Other roundworms that are also highly distributed include Trichuris trichiura, and the hookworms (Ancylostoma duodenale, and Necator Americanus).
