which may give rise to free-swimming,

- A
cercaria (plural
cercariae) is a
larval form of the
trematode class of parasites. It
develops within the
germinal cells of the
sporocyst or redia. A...

swelling of the

People repeatedly exposed to
cercariae develop heavier symptoms with
faster onset.
There are no
permanent effects...

After a month, the
sporocysts rupture and

Stimulated by light,

which give rise to many worm-like
larvae called cercariae. The

miracidia develop into sporocysts, then to rediae, then to
cercariae. The

released from the
snail to form
metacercariae and the life...
