What is the Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species of the platyhelminthes?

Answer 1

Kingdom: Animalia
Subkingdom: Eumetazoa
Superphylum: Platyzoa
Phylum: Platyhelminthes

Classes

Monogenea
Trematoda
Cestoda
Turbellaria

Monogenea --- Monopistocotylea include:

* Genus Gyrodactylus, which has no eyespots and is viviparous.
* Genus 'Dactylogyrus, which has four eyespots and lays eggs. This is one of the largest metazoan genera, with at least 970 species.
* Genus Neobenedenia, which is much larger and lives on the skin of many tropical marine species, causing problematic disease in marine aquaria.

All of which can cause epizootics in freshwater fish when raised in aquaculture.

Polyopisthocotylea include:

* Genus Diclidophora, which is primarily found in marine fish and primitive freshwater fish like sturgeons and paddlefish

Trematoda ---- includes Subclasses

Aspidogastrea
Digenea

Cestoda----- includes Orders

Subclass Cestodaria
Amphilinidea
Gyrocotylidea
Subclass Eucestoda
Aporidea
Caryophyllidea
Cyclophyllidea
Diphyllidea
Lecanicephalidea
Litobothridea
Nippotaeniidea
Proteocephalidea
Pseudophyllidea
Spathebothriidea
Tetraphyllidea
Trypanorhyncha

Turbellaria ----- includes Orders

(Acoela)
Catenulida
Haplopharyngida
Lecithoepitheliata
Macrostomida
(Nemertodermata)
Polycladida
Prolecithophora
Rhabdocoela
Seriata
Temnocephalida

Answer 2

Since platyhelminthes is a phylum, all members of that phylum will have the same kindom, but from there on all the information might be different.

To pick an example at random, the beef tapeworm is kingdom Animalia, phylum Platyhelminthes, class Cestoda, order Cyclophyllidea, family Taeniidae, genus Taenia, and species Saginata.

But this is just one example. The liver fluke is kingdom Animalia, phylum Platyhelminthes, class Trematoda, order Opisthorchiida, family Opisthorchiidae, genus Clonorchis, and species Sinensis.

You see what I mean, I hope!

Answer 3

Mongoose: Kingdom: Animalia; Phylum: Chordata; Class: Mammalia; Order: Carnivora; Family: Herpestidae Genus: Depends on specific mongoose Species: specific mongoose you're looking for

Answer 4

Platyhelminthes is a Phylum, so the classification would be:

Kingdom Animalia
- Phylum Platyhelminthes

The platyhelminths include tapeworms, flukes and planarians - the flatworms. Many of them are parasitic, and some of them can be quite damaging to humans.

Answer 5

Fluke Phylum

Answer 6

Platyhelminthes is a PHYLUM. Flatworms. Kingdom Animalia if you wanted to go up a level. But you can't go lower on the taxonomic ladder than phylum unless you're more specific with the organism you are trying to get us to classify.

Answer 7

Animalia is the kingdom and the Phylum is platyhelminthes. You need to be a little more specific with what you want to know.
