A The alternate host of Taenia saginata is cow. Taenia saginata, also known as the beef tapeworm, is transmitted to humans in the form of infectious larva cysts found in the meat of cattle, which serve as the parasite's usual intermediate host. The other secondary host of T. Saginata are buffaloes, sheep and goats.

Flame cells present in the members of platyhelminthes are specialized to perform,
1 Respiration and Osmoregulation
2 Osmoregulation and Circulation
3 Osmoregulation and Excretion
4 Respiration and Excretion
Explanation:
C In platyhelminthes the main unit of excretion is flame cells. Which is scattered parenchymatous tissue if has numerous pseudopodial process. Its cytoplasm has a nucleus and other cytoplasmic organelles. The function of these cells is to regulate the osmotic pressure of the worm and maintain its ionic balance.

Which parasite shows alternation of generation and alternations of hosts in its life cycle?
1 Fasciola
2 Ascaris
3 Taenia
4 Wuchereria
Explanation:
A In Fasciola germ cells reproduce asexulally before the adult stage transitions to sexual reproduction. Fasciola completes its life cycle in two alternate hosts in a process known as "alternation of generation". The primary definitive host is sheep, and a freshwater snail serves as the secondary host.
