Q

Differentiate Order Cotyloda/Pseudophyllidea (Pseudotapeworms) and Eucestoda/Cyclophyllidea (True tapeworms)

A

The organ of attachment of order Cyclophyllidea are suckers and rostellum, stage infective to first IH is the hexacanth embryo with only one IH and eggs are shedded via thysanus. On the other hand, Order Pseudophyllidea organ of attachment is the bothria, stage infective to first IH is the coracidium with two IH and eggs are shedded via uterine pore.

38
Q

Structures that develop once the uterus disappears by degeneration

A

Paruterine organs

39
Q

It assumes the function of the uterus e.g. hyaline egg capsules and dense areas of fibromuscular tissue

A

Paruterine organs

40
Q

Eggs of the tapeworms are shed from the ____ and passed out with the faeces.

A

Strobila

41
Q

Disintegrated eggs may fall into single eggs, give an example

A

Taenia sp.

42
Q

Isolated pieces of uterus (paruterine organs) containing egg packets (give examples) or capsules (cocoons) each with 8-30 eggs (give example).

A

Mesocestoides, Davainea, Avitellina spp.
Dipylidium sp.

43
Q

Egg shedding of Cyclophyllidea

A

Eggs are fertilized → reproductive and other internal organs degenerate → proglottids are detached (singly or in chains) → disintegration of gravid proglottids eggs are set free via the thysanus (apolysis)

44
Q

disintegration of gravid proglottids eggs are set free via what?

A

thysanus (apolysis)

45
Q

Egg shedding of Pseudophyllidea

A

Fertilized eggs are continuously discharged through the uterine pore → egg production ceases → exhausted proglottids are detached from the strobila (pseudoapolysis)

46
Q

A
  1. May be embryonated or non-embryonated.
