Egg shedding of pseudophyllidae is through the?
uterine pore
What do you call of the organ of attachment of Cyclophyllidea?
Suckers and rostellum
These structures develop once the uterus disappears by degeneration.
Paruterine organs
Present in the integument which is the primary organ for absorption of food
microtriches
The organ of attachment of Pseudophyllidea
Bothria
A fully embyronated egg of cestodes contains?
Oncosphere
It is the metameric repetition of reproductive organs
Proglottidization
A hexacanth embryo with 3 hook pairs found at the center of a fully developed cestode egg
oncosphere
Give an example of species with its egg hatching affected by the environment stimulus
Diphyllobothrium latum
These structures assume the function of the uterus
paruterine organs
Give an example of species with its egg hatching affected by mechanical action

Taenia sp.
What do you call of the eggs covered with materials derived from the parenchyma?
egg pouches
What is the infective larval form of tapeworms?
metacestode
What is the first metacestode stage of Pseudophyliids?
procercoid
What do you call of the eggs covered or protected with material derived from the uterus?
egg capsule
The infective stage to the first intermediate host of cestode infection
oncosphere
Occurs in the 2nd IH host of Pseudophyllids. It is elongate, solid bodied, and bears an adult scolex
plerocercoid
Single evaginated scolex embedded in a small solid cyst, found in the small IH such as arthropods
cysticercoid
single scolex invaginated into itself in a large, fluid containing vesicle or bladder
cysticercus
solid bodied with hooks on the cercomer in the posterior region
procercoid
single colex evaginated and attached to the cyst by a chain of asexual proglottids digested away after ingestion by final host
strobilocercus
