WHAT DOES ASCARID MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Ascaris

Ascaris is a genus of parasitic nematode worms known as the "small intestinal roundworms". One species A. lumbricoides, affects humans and causes the disease Ascariasis. Another species, A. suum, typically infects pigs. Their eggs are deposited in feces and soil. Plants with the eggs on them will infect any organism that consumes them. A. lumbricoides is the largest intestinal roundworm and is the most common helminth infection of humans worldwide, a disease known as ascariasis. Infestation can cause morbidity by compromising nutritional status, affecting cognitive processes, inducing tissue reactions such as granuloma to larval stages, and by causing intestinal obstruction, which can be fatal.
