question 4/10
which of the following describes tapeworms?
a. eye spots
b. ciliated cornea
c. adhesive glands
d. no digestive tract
Tapeworms are parasitic flatworms. They live in the intestines of their hosts and absorb nutrients directly through their body surface. As a result, they do not need a digestive tract to process food in the traditional sense. Eye spots are found in some other flatworms like planarians for light detection. Ciliated cornea is not a feature associated with tapeworms. Adhesive glands are more related to some other organisms for attachment in different contexts rather than being a key defining feature of tapeworms.
