1. Explain why planarians and flukes are called flatworms.
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer and Explanation:

Platyhelminthes are mostly worm like organisms that are dorsoventrally flattened, meaning they look like a leaf and this is why they are coined names like the Tapeworm, Flatworm, Fluke and Planarian.

Most Platyhelminthes are parasites on other animals but only the Turbellarians are mostly non-parasitic. A few species are commensalists, or mutualists living with other larger organism.

They are classified into:

  • Class Turbellaria
  • Class Monogenea
  • Class Trematoda
  • Class Cestoda
