what is unique about the life cycle of the dog tapeworm?
Answer Posted / arif
The life cycle of the dog tapeworm consists of three
stages . The eggs of the dog tapeworm are passed in the
faeces and eaten by the larvae of fleas or biting lice.
The parasitic larvae is released from the egg and develops
into a solid-body form like cysticercoid in the flea or
louse. Cats become accidentally infected by eating infected
fleas or lice.
The dog tapeworm requires two to three weeks to develop
into a segment-shedding tapeworm in the cat. The fully
grown tapeworm may reach 30 cm in length.
