  • One of the classes in Phylum Platyhelminthes is Class Cestoda, which contains all of the tapeworms. Tapeworms can be found in a variety of species, but this video explore Taenia saginata and Taenia solium. The life cycle image comes from the CDC website (www.cdc.gov/dp...) which also explores the cycle in more detail as well as human impacts, pictures, and treatments.
    Below are some links to my other videos that may be helpful:

    Me 12 hours after my colonoscopy "there is no way i have a tapeworm. I just saw the entirety of my bowels"
    Professor: "tapeworms attach to your small intestine"
    Me "Doh!"

      Some tapeworms can be over 30 feet long! Meaning it would show up in your large intestine - so… some comfort there? Maybe? 😂

    You really need to freshen up on your knowledge regarding ground beef because you’re telling people to you consider ordering it medium rare next time as a minimum precaution, but ground beef which burgers are mostly made out of should be cooked thoroughly all the way through no exceptions.

      I appreciate you bringing this up! I did some research (from CDC: www.cdc.gov/parasites/taeniasis/gen_info/faqs.html) and you are correct for ground beef, which should be cooked at least medium. It seems the reason is that the grounding process can introduce additional bacteria and other pathogens which require the higher temperature. However, for "whole" meats such as a steak, medium rare will get it hot enough to kill the Taenia and other pathogens. I appreciate you sharing this!

      While only half related to the video topic, medium rare is just on the borderline for killing Toxoplasma gondii. I prefer to cook just a little bit past medium rare for that reason.

    Can u plzzzzzz make a video lec on sensory reception in invertebrates
    I understand only your way of teaching

      Oh boy, that is a BIG topic! I likely (probably) won't get the time to do the research and make a video before my semester starts. Invertebrates are a very large group of organisms and there are lots of different sensory reception methods. Something you could check out is learning about general sensory processes here: openstax.org/books/biology-2e/pages/36-1-sensory-processes . If there are certain inverts that you need to know, you can look into Chapter 28 of that online, free textbook and each invertebrate section goes briefly into each sensory process they use. Good luck and sorry I couldn't be more help!
