Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The typical fluke life cycle involves the egg hatching into a miracidium, which then infects a snail and develops into a sporocyst. The sporocyst then produces cercariae, which leave the snail and infect a secondary host. Therefore, the correct sequence of development in a typical fluke life cycle is egg, miracidium, sporocyst, and cercaria. Choice B gives the correct sequence in the proper order.
