Acanthocephalan meaning in marathi

ऍकॅन्थोसेफलन

  • Definitions

    1. Any of parasitic intestinal worms comprising the phylum Acanthocephala.

    आंतड्यातील परजीवी जंतांपैकी कोणतेही अकॅन्थोसेफला फाइलम.

  • Examples:
    1. Acanthocephalans are dioecious pseudocoelomate worms remarkably adapted to a parasitic lifestyle in that there is no mouth or digestive system.

    2. Clearly acanthocephalans contain large amounts of lipid and possess enzyme systems for lipid metabolism (Filipponi et al., 1994; Weber et al., 1995); however, use of these lipid deposits in energy metabolism is yet to be demonstrated.

    3. That discussion of fish intestines is justified because many acanthocephalans have been described from fish.
