Chapter 7: Parasites and Hosts p 191 How do ectoparasites and endoparasites differ? Ectoparasites - tough‚ thick cuticle; small wings if any; backwards pointing spines (to anchor) Endoparasites - Live inside bodies of other animals; lack locomotory appendages and sensory organs; modified tracheal systems for aquatic environments What is the general body shape of permanent ectoparasites? 2 dimensional‚ flattened/compressed‚ with thick‚ tough cuticle‚ little or no wings‚ backwardspointing spines
