Q

What is a reason for the pharynx of Dugesia being centrally located on the body?

A

The central location on the body permits uniform delivery of nutrients to all portions of the body since they don’t have a circulatory system

Q

Why is the GVC in flatworms for extensively branched?

A

Extensive branching increases digestive surface area of the GVC and increases the efficiency of the process, and the delivery of nutrients

Q

What features of trematodes suggest adaptation to a parasitic lifestyle? (4)

A
  • hermaphroditism
  • extensive reproductive organs
  • reduced digestive system
  • ability to self fertilize
25
Q

T/F: One reason for parasitic flatworms have a reduced digestive system is because parasites feed on body fluids that are already digested and thus absorb nutrients directly.

A

true

26
Q

Why are so many resources put towards reproduction in parasitic flatworms? (2)

A

there are lower chances of meeting a mate and offspring generally have extremely low survival rates due to their complex life cycles

27
Q

Why is there an entire reproductive system in each proglottid?

A

repetition of proglottids allows each to reproduce independently and maximize the overall reproductive output of the tapeworm

28
Q

What defensive provisions do flukes possess for protection against the digestive enzymes of their hosts?

A

a cuticle which is resistant to digestive enzymes of its hosts

29
Q

What adaptations have allowed members of Cestoda to be successful endoparasites?

A

eggs are extremely resistant to pH extremes, temperature, and moisture, thus enhancing their ability to survive
