Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides an introduction to the study of animal parasites or animal parasitology. It includes both theoretical and experimental approaches to disciplines in this field. The book begins with a general overview of the major groups of animal parasites and their distribution, illustrated by the animal parasites of the frog. Subsequent chapters delve into specific topics such as the morphology of trematodes (flukes), tapeworms, nematodes (roundworms), hookworms, and various protozoa. Case studies of the life cycles of these parasites are examined in microscopic detail. These case studies illustrate some of the ways in which parasites have adapted to their hosts, and the complex interactions that can occur between host and parasite. The author's detailed study of the science of animal parasites provides the reader with a foundation for understanding the biology of these organisms and their impact on the health of animals and humans.
