Tapeworms

Tapeworms are parasites that enter your body when you eat somthing that had a tapeworm egg in it. They stay in your stomach, and feed on the food you eat, and sometimes even your stomach itself!

Tapeworms confer psychic abilities in humans, in particular the ability to transcend dimensions. This is the payback in exchange for humans providing a safe habitat for the tapeworm to live, grow, and multiply. Each worm hosted by the body will provide a different pathway. Multiple worms provide access to multiple dimensions. The dimensional transition is engaged telepathically when accessed via direct enquiry. A blending of minds thus occurs.

yes, often thousands.

Fungus or bacteria

Parts of tapeworms will follow the entire digestive system and be excreted in the feces.

Dogs world is much about smell and taste. They really enjoy sniffing and licking each others bum and feces on the ground.

If one dog in your area has got tapeworms, then the chances are that a lot of dogs in your area soon there after will get it too.

It is a highly contagious parasite although not very dangerous. It is also easily treated.

The parasite does not have preferences to Dogs, Humans, Foxes, Cats etc.

As humans are more sensible regarding sniffing and licking bums and each other feces, we are not really at a high risk of getting it.

Young children are at risk because they smell and taste the world more than older children do.

Nervous system has completely disappeared from tape worms,since they have completely adapted to parasitic life.

If your dog has been infected, over-the-counter worm medications aren't always the best solutions. Many are effective only against one kind of parasite and require repeat treatments over a long period of time--it all depends on the worm and the level of infestation, as well as the age and general health of your dog. (In some cases, like tapeworm, prescription meds are the only thing that's at all effective.) A vet can give you a better idea of what will work in your dog's particular case. Treatment isn't usually all that traumatic; for most cases, oral medications will do the job.

My mum says a tapeworm lives in your stomach and a liver fluke lives in your liver.

No, but they can cause anemia and a nutritional deficiency.

Nausea, constant hunger even after you've just eaten, weird stomach feelings (especially at night), weakness, and weight loss. ---

Symptoms can be digestive problems, weight loss, lack of energy, or anemia.

a tapeworm has hooks on its head and round the mouth as a means of clinging to the insides of the stomach when bowel movements (pooing or peeing) occurs, so that it does not get excreted into the toilet or the ground. (the ground... :D)

Generally the only sign of tapeworms in dogs is finding proglottids (small egg packets that look like rice) in their feces. However, these proglottids are shed sporadically and not generally in large numbers so tapeworm infections often go undiagnosed.

However, in severe infestations, the dog may voimit, have diarrhea, become dehydrated or lethargic, and can die in extremely bad cases. Tapeworms are parasites, which means they take much needed nutrients from their host - if they take too many nutrients or block the intestines, they can eventually cause death.

A tapeworm can be very dangerous to a pregnant woman. The bacteria from the worm can get to the baby. Consult your doctor about the best ways to handle this without hurting the baby.

TAPEWORMS

paratic

Tapeworm is definitely not a fungi. Ringworm I believe is a fungal infection but as all other infections called worms really are some kind of worm. If you use a search engine with 'tapeworm class species and family' I'm sure you can get a better idea of whether it is a protist, round worm, flat worm etc, but I think it might even be a segmented worm.

You can catch tapeworms by eating pork, beef, or fish that is not cooked properly. This is one of the primary reasons for cooking food thoroughly. A single tapeworm produces enough eggs to infect every single person in the world.

Is there a NONSENSICAL STATEMENTS ABOUT TAPEWORMS web site you people are going to? You are confused and are thinking of Trichanella a nematode not a cestode. A single tapeworm producing enough eggs to infect the world is meaningless. 2 fleas and their progeny left to breed for a year will produce 256,000,000 fleas. So what?

Yes they have hooked heads that dig into flesh, they can also move beyond the stomach to the oesophagus.

Adult tapeworms "feed" by absorbing their nutrients through the cuticle from their immediate environment and excrete waste products by the same route

ya they are kind of dangerous.....
they are parasites. they fix themselves to your intestine, where nutrients are absorbed..
it gets all nutrients from your body and happily stays there......
however, some or the other time, it gets excreted...

No. Arthropod literally means jointed leg, and worms don´t even have legs ;) Arthropods are animals like insects, spiders and crustaceans. Tape worms are flatworms or Platyhelminthes.

1, they eat and expel waste from the same opening.

tape worm eggs

Yes. Pigs not living in a sterile environment can transfer tapeworms as well as other worms through their feces. To prevent this, clean the pigs' pen constantly, and if one or more seems to show symptoms of having worms, immediately administer a dewormer to all the pigs.
