Summary Introduction
To review:
A hypothesis that states eating mollusks develop mild to severe gastrointestinal infections.
Introduction:
The invertebrate animals lack the vertebral column and it includes arthropods, mollusks, annelids, and Porifera. The body of mollusks is divided into head, visceral mass, and foot. All animals have evolved from a common ancestor of colonial, flagellated protist.

Consider things about sponges and Cnidarians.

b) Pick one of these two groups and state how they help humans directly (name which group you are discussing).
Which one of these is NOT an example of a parasite?
Select one:
a. A bromeliad plant growing on the trunk of a rainforest tree that derives its moisture and nutrients from the air, rain and debris accumulating around the plant.
b. A leech feeding on blood it extracts from the leg of a human host.
c. A Rafflesia plant using a specialised absorptive organ, known as a haustorium, to draw nutrients from other plants.
d. A tapeworm that lives inside the intestine of an animal and feeds off the food that the animal is digesting.
