Question 1 In the life cycle of flukes: The primary sporocysts are free-swimming that develop sexually to become rediae. O The egg of a digenetic trematode hatches into an acanthor larva, which penetrates a crustacean intermediate host. O The cercaria is a free-swimming stage, and is referred to as furcocercous if it has a forked tail. The rediae are relatively more differentiated than the primary sporocysts and can develop into cercaria that infect snails.
