10. Ex 1: Fasciola Hepatica (liver flukes)


An endoparasite
Has 2 hosts(digenea)
Primary host : sheep
Secondary host : snail
Infective stage to
snail:miracidium
• Infective stage to
sheep:metacercariae

• Anterior mouth
• Has 2 suckers (oral and
ventral)
• Hermaphrodite
• Body surrounded by tough
resistant tegument
12
30 April 2019

13. 1-Digestive system

• Incomplete (has no anus)
• At the anterior end of the body a
mouth opening is present
surrounded by oral sucker leading to
buccal cavity, which lead to pharynx
then into narrow oesophagus.
• It opens into intestine which is
divided into branches. Each gives side
branches. The two branches end near
the posterior end of the animal.
• The tegument absorbs glucose from
the host directly.
13
30 April 2019

14. 2-Excretory system

• In liver fluke the excretion is
carried out by flame cells.
• It has a longituidnal
excretory canal. From it a
number of branches will
arise.
• They branch again. The fine
branches end with flame
cells.
• The longitudinal excretory
canal opens at the posterior
end through excretory
opening.

21. Ex. 2: Schistosoma sp.

• Unisexual(dioecious)
• Male having a gynecophoral canal
(schisto-soma = split body)
• Live inside blood vessels and are
commonly known as blood flukes.
• Primary host : human
• Intermediate hosts : Snails
• Eggs excreted with faeces or urine.
• Infectice stage of snail : miracidia
• Infective stage of human
:cercariae.
• Vertebrate infected by penetration
of the skin.

23. CLASS III : Cestoda Ex. : Taenia sp.

• endoparasites
• Body covered with thick
cuticle.
• Mouth , digestive tract and
sense organs are absent.
• Fertilization is internal.
• The tapeworm use the
scolex (diagram shown on
the right), to attaches itself
firmly to the host’ intestinal
wall.
23
30 April 2019

24.

• The tip of the scolex is
equipped with a retractable
hook-bearing rostellum which
acts like discs with teeth to
hold onto the intestinal wall.
• So, the tapeworm will just
hang on to the intestinal wall
and absorb food through their
skin.
• tapeworms do not have any
digestive tracts and also lack
mouths and digestive
enzymes, unlike the other
classes of platyhelminthes.
24
30 April 2019

25.

• Made up of many
segments called
proglottids.
• Each proglottid is a
reproductive unit
that produces
gametes.
25
30 April 2019

26.

• The neck produces segments called
proglottids which make up the body
and tail.
• Each segment has both male and
female reproductive organs.
• Segments can produce eggs on their
own but sometimes mate with other
segments or even other tapeworms.
• Segments absorb nutrients through
their skin and have the ability to
produce eggs.
• Over time the segments fill with eggs
and detach from the tail. They are
then carried out of the body in the
feces.
26
30 April 2019

27.

• Has at least 2 hosts
• Though they are
sexually
hermaphroditic, selffertilization is a rare
phenomenon.
• To permit
hybridization, crossfertilization between
two individuals is often
practiced for
reproduction.
27
30 April 2019

28.

• Endoparasitic
• Primary host :
human
• Secondary host:
pigs or cattle
• Infective stage to
human :
cysticercus
• Infective stage to
pigs:
eggs or proglottid
