Answer:

Flaccid paralysis.

Explanation:

Demyelinating disease may be defined as in which the protective layer of myelin sheath gets damaged. This causes the slow down or even stops the transfer of nerve impulse.

Flaccid paralysis is the neurologic condition that results in the reduced muscle tone due to damage in the nerves of the muscles. The contraction is inhibited in the flaccid paralysis. The demylination results in no contraction at all as occur in flaccid paralysis.

Thus, the answer is flaccid paralysis.

Helminths are:_________
jek_recluse [69]

Helminths are parasitic worms.

Parasitic Worms- Large macro-parasites called helminths, or parasitic worms, are typically visible as adults to the unaided eye. Many are soil-transmitted intestinal worms that infect the gastrointestinal system. Schistosomes and other parasitic worms live in blood vessels.

Gastrointestinal system- The alimentary canal, often known as the digestive system, is the body's mechanism for ingesting food and expelling solid waste. The mouth, throat, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and anus are all parts of the gastrointestinal system.

Helminths- Invertebrates known as helminths have elongated, flat, or circular bodies. Flukes and tapeworms are considered flatworms, often known as platyhelminths (platy is a Greek word that means "flat").
