Hints & Solutions
(b) Ascaris larva is also called rhabditiform. In the free-living cycle: Rhabditiform larvae are passed in the stool of an infected definitive host, develop into either infective filariform larvae (direct development) or free-living adult males and females that mate and produce eggs, from which rhabditiform larvae hatch and eventually become infective filariform larvae.
