Flatworms

Tapeworms obtain nutrients by directly absorbing them through their skin, or tegument, which is lined with microvilli that increase surface area for absorption. They inhabit the intestines of their hosts, where they can efficiently uptake digested food, such as glucose and amino acids, as it passes by. This adaptation allows them to thrive without a mouth or digestive system, relying instead on the host's digestive processes.

Yes, Schistosoma haematobium, the causative agent of urinary schistosomiasis, requires a secondary host, specifically freshwater snails of the genus Bulinus, to complete its life cycle. The adult worms reside in the human host's blood vessels, where they produce eggs that are excreted in urine. When these eggs reach freshwater, they hatch and infect the snails, where they develop into cercariae, which can then infect humans. Thus, both human and snail hosts are essential for the parasite's lifecycle.

Flatworms have a simple body structure characterized by a lack of specialized respiratory and circulatory systems, relying instead on diffusion for gas exchange and nutrient distribution. This limits their size because as organisms grow larger, the surface area-to-volume ratio decreases, making it inefficient for diffusion to meet their metabolic needs. Additionally, their flattened shape aids in maximizing surface area but restricts them from developing into larger, more complex forms. Consequently, flatworms are generally small and rely on moist environments to facilitate their physiological processes.

To test a current transformer (CT) with a Fluke meter, you'll first need to set the meter to the appropriate AC current setting. Connect the meter leads to the secondary terminals of the CT while ensuring the primary circuit is energized safely. Measure the output current; it should reflect the expected ratio based on the CT's specifications. If the reading is significantly different from expected, the CT may be faulty or improperly connected.

Those that feed of of others sucess' ,feeling they have some god given right to it.

With about 25,000 known species they are the largest phylum of acoelomates (any organism that lacks a cavity between the body wall and the digestive tract) including flat worms, so they are not extinct or endangered.

(Not my answer)

Their cells are too close to the animal's exterior surface.

In flatworms, the clusters of nerve cells that control the nervous system are called ganglia. These ganglia are often referred to as a "nerve ring" and serve as a centralized processing center for sensory information and motor control. Flatworms also possess a simple nerve net that connects these ganglia, allowing for coordinated movement and responses to stimuli.

Procotyla fluviatilis grows up to 20 millimeters long. but there are many speices of flatworms so i just found one

Yes, flatworms themselves are parasitic. Their eggs, however, can exist for long periods outside any host.

Earthworms are a worm but flatworm is a type of heart worm

i dont no the answer bye bye

fluke

yes

bionomencal name for lion

Flukes
