Trichinella is also a parasite. It can infect humans as well as other mammals like pigs, bears, and rodents. If untreated, it can lead to death.What mammal tissue does this roundworm infect?Draw a picture below of the Trichinella as viewed under the microscope.

If there are no live specimens available, check out this you tube video instead: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnjwvtFvyeQDescribe the movement of the vinegar eels.Do they have a complete or incomplete digestive system?arrow_forwardPlacozoans are structurally simple. They have no mouth, gut, or nervous system and only a few distinct cell types. This simplicity is thought to be secondarily derived, because they have an asymmetrical adult stage. are composed of an upper and lower body surface that sandwiches a layer of contractile fibers. exhibit asexual and sexual reproduction. are sessile filter feeders. are found in tropical and subtropical oceans.arrow_forward
