Ascaris lubricoides = intestinal roundworm<br />
Ascaris lumbricoides -- Intestinal roundworm<br />
Adults (male & female)<br />
in human intestine<br />
shelled embryos<br />
in feces<br />
shelled larvae<br />
develop (10-15<br />
days) on soil.<br />
in lung, larvae leave<br />
blood, move to<br />
trachea, esophagus<br />
larvae emerge in<br />
duodenum, pe<strong>net</strong>rate gut<br />
wall <strong>and</strong> enter blood stream<br />
shelled larvae<br />
ingested by humans<br />
with food or water<br />

Adults in human<br />
intestine<br />
thin shelled embryos in feces<br />
larvae develop,<br />
hatch in soil<br />
esophagus<br />
larvae grow,<br />
feed on feces<br />
bronchi<br />
in lung, larvae leave<br />
blood, enter alveoli<br />
larvae attach,<br />
pe<strong>net</strong>rate skin,<br />
enter blood stream<br />

Enterobius vermicularis -- Pinworm<br />
Adults (male & female)<br />
in human large intestine<br />
<strong>and</strong> cecum<br />
females migrate to<br />
anus at night<br />
deposited shelled<br />
embryos cause itching<br />
