How do external parasites affect an animal?

1 answer:

7 0

I know they carry diseases which can harm or kill the animal it is attached to. These diseases can taint the meat of the animal so it wouldn't be wise to eat it which stinks if the animal is bread for eating. They can also irritate the skin and cause rashes, or even eat the flesh of the animal away.

How are the fluke larvae transferred from the snail (invertebrate host) to the vertebrate host?

Vesna [10]

The eggs of the fluke are passed into water supplies from feces and urine of infected people. After hatching the parasite actively swims and invades the body of a snail, usually by penetrating through the snail's foot. The parasite requires the presence of certain species of snails (e.g., Oncomelania, Biomphalaria, Bulinus) to transform (and multiply) itself into an infective stage, called cercaria.
