Tapeworms are long, segmented worms of the class Cestoda, which comprise 1 of 3 classes of parasitic worms (worms that require a host within which to mature).These worms lack an intestinal tract and instead are able to absorb nutrients through their integument.

The adult consists of a head (scolex), where the worms attach to the mucosa of the intestine; a neck; and a segmented body that contains both male gonads and female gonads (proglottids).

You haven’t passed out yours yet? Want deworming medicine? Just kidding. Yes it can be quite dramatic.
