Classes Trematoda and Monogenea Section 1 Platyhelminthes Chapter 34 Classes Trematoda and Monogenea The classes Trematoda and Monogenea consist of parasitic ______________. Some are endoparasites; others are ectoparasites. Structure of Flukes A fluke clings to the tissues of its host by an anterior sucker and a ventral sucker. A fluke’s nervous system is similar to a planarian’s, but simpler. The external surface of a fluke is covered by a protective layer called the _________________.

Classes Trematoda and Monogenea, continued Section 1 Platyhelminthes Chapter 34 Classes Trematoda and Monogenea, continued Reproduction and Life Cycle of Flukes Most flukes have highly developed reproductive systems and are hermaphroditic. Fertilized eggs are stored in a fluke’s uterus until they are ready to be released. Flukes have complicated life cycles that involve more than one host species. For example, the trematode blood flukes of the genus Schistosoma use __________ as a primary hosts and __________ as intermediate hosts. They can cause schistosomiasis.

Section 1 Platyhelminthes Chapter 34 Class Cestoda About 5,000 species of ______________ make up the class Cestoda. Tapeworms can live in the intestines of almost all vertebrates. Structure of Tapeworms Tapeworms are surrounded by a tegument. They attach to the host with a ___________. The body is a series of many sections called _________________. Tapeworms have no light-sensing organs, no mouth, no gastrovascular cavity, and no digestive organs.

Class Cestoda, continued Section 1 Platyhelminthes Chapter 34 Class Cestoda, continued Reproduction and Life Cycle of Tapeworms Nearly all tapeworms are hermaphrodites. Each proglottid contains male and female reproductive organs and little else. New proglottids are added to the front of the tapeworm. Older proglottids grow, mature, and begin producing eggs. Eggs in one proglottid are usually fertilized by sperm from a different proglottid, possibly a different individual. An example is the beef tapeworm, Taenia saginatus. Its primary host is a human and its intermediate host is a cow. Its larvae form ___________ in the muscle tissue of the cow.

Phylum Nematoda, continued Section 2 Nematoda and Rotifera Chapter 34 Phylum Nematoda, continued Ascaris The genus Ascaris infects pigs, horses, and humans. The eggs enter hosts through contaminated food or water, develop into larvae in the intestines, and can infect the lungs. The eggs are spread in the hosts’ feces. Hookworms Hookworms are intestinal parasites that feed on blood. The eggs produce larvae in soil, and the larvae enter hosts through the feet. Hookworms infect about one ___________ people worldwide.

Phylum Nematoda, continued Section 2 Nematoda and Rotifera Chapter 34 Phylum Nematoda, continued Trichinella The genus Trichinella infects humans and other mammals. Adults live in intestines and larvae form cysts in muscles. People usually become infected from undercooked pork. Infection causes the disease trichinosis. Other Parasitic Roundworms Pinworms, genus Enterobius, are common parasites of humans. They do not cause any serious disease. ________________infect many people in tropical countries. The most dangerous ones infect the lymphatic system and may cause ___________________.

Phylum Rotifera Chapter 34 Section 2 Nematoda and Rotifera Chapter 34 Phylum Rotifera Members of the phylum Rotifera are called rotifers. Most rotifers are tiny, transparent, free-living animals that live in fresh water. Some can survive without water for long periods. Although tiny, they are truly multicellular and have specialized organ systems. They use the crown of cilia around their mouth to sweep food into the ___________. The digestive, reproductive, and excretory systems empty into the ______________. Some species reproduce by ____________________.

Short Response, continued Chapter 34 Standardized Test Prep Short Response, continued Planarians and rotifers eliminate water through a network of excretory structures that run the length of the body. Explain why the excretory structures in planarians and rotifers are called flame cells. Answer: The beating of the cilia in flame cells draws water from surrounding tissue. It is the motion of the cilia that resembles the flickering of a flame.

Chapter 34 Standardized Test Prep Extended Response Base your answers to parts A & B on the information below. Parasitic flatworms have life cycles that include primary and intermediate hosts. Part A Distinguish between primary and intermediate hosts in flatworms. Part B Sequence the life cycle of a beef tapeworm. Identify the primary and intermediate hosts.

Extended Response, continued Chapter 34 Standardized Test Prep Extended Response, continued Answer: Part A Primary hosts nourish the adult parasite. Intermediate hosts nourish the larval parasite. Part B: Adult tapeworms live in the intestines of the primary host, humans. Mature proglotids are shed in the feces and release eggs.
