Q

Typical life cycle of trematodes

  1. Eggs deposited in feces. (Egg must fall into water)
  2. Miracidium develops in egg, and escapes cell
  3. Miracidium swim to find suitable species of snail
  4. Within snail, Miracidium undergoes asexual reproduction to produce Cercariae
  5. Cercariae emerge from snail and encyst as Metacercariae on vegetation of in another IH
