Definition

Term
Cnidocyte
Definition
When the cnidocil is stimulated, high internal osmotic pressure causes water to rush into the capsule. The operculum opens and the rapidly increasing hydrostatic pressure within the capsule forces the thread outward with great force, the thread turning inside out as it goes. The barb flicks to the outside and venom penetrates prey.

·         Free swimming medusa male or female combine to produce planula.

·         Planula swims and settles to attach to a surface.

·         Planula becomes a sessile polyp called scyphistoma.

·         Scyphistoma produce new free swimming medusa called strobilation.

·         These are now called strobila and as the medusa detaches they are called ephyra.

·         The ephyra matures and becomes a mature medusa.

Term
life cycle of Fasciola hepatica
Definition

adult flukes produce eggs passed in faeces

eggs separate from faecal material in wet areas and hatch releasing larvae

larvae invade the lymnaeid snail and develop and multiply as sporocysts

sporocysts leave the snail and swim until they encyst on vegetation forming metacercariae (infective stage)

ingested by sheep, cattle and other hosts and excyst in small intestine

released immature flukes penetrate the intestinal wall and enter abdominal cavity

young flukes penetrate the liver capsule and migrate through the liver tissue before entering bile ducts to become adults

Term
life cycle of Clonorchis sinensis
Definition

embryonated eggs passed in feces of humans

eggs are ingested by snail

asexual reproduction takes place in snail

each egg releases a miracidia which goes through several developmental stages:

sporocysts

rediae

cercariae

cercariae are released from the snail and free-swimming in water until they come in contact and penetrate the flesh of freshwater fish

cercariae encyst as metacercariae

infection of humans occurs by ingestion of undercooked, salted, pickled, or smoked freshwater fish

after ingestion, the metacercariae excyst in the duodenum

metacercariae ascend the bilary tract through the ampulla of vater

maturation takes approximately 1 month and adults reside in small and medium bilary ducts
