Animal coughs them up and then swallows them, they mate, and their eggs pass out in waste.
Necator
Hookworms, bores through bare feet
Trichinella
Parasitic roundworms in pigs that causes trichinosis in humans. Cooking/freezing kills it.
PHYLUM ROTIFERA
Have a row a cilia around the mouth
feed on bacteria and protists
and are well developed one way gut.
Flatworms have these systems
Distinct centralized nrevous system, simple excretory system, and a complex reproductive system, a prmitive intestine (one opening for food and waste)
What can Flatworms do to humans?
