Tapeworms

This is a picture of a human and a Taeniasis or other wise known as the tapeworm. The relationship that they have is a parasitic relationship. As you see here in the picture taken in south Brunswick Monmouth Junction the tapeworm has just entered its victim. It will then make a journey to the digestive tract and eat all the food there. It will proceed to become bigger and will eventually come out with your stool. What can cause this to happen? Well the food that we eat if not cooked well tapeworms might still be on the food. Then the larvae and the tapeworm make a bigger tapeworm. How can we prevent this. It is easy you have to cook meat until it it does not look raw and if you feel like you have a tapeworm call the doctor right away.
