Compare the morphology of three primary spices of human schistomes
Schistosomes are parasitic blood flukes that infect >200 million people around the world. Free-swimming larval stages penetrate the skin, invade a blood vessel, and migrate through the heart and lungs to the vasculature of the liver, where maturation and mating occurs.
The three main species infecting humans are Schistosoma haematobium, S. japonicum, and S. mansoni.
