Please answer fast Imagine 4 hypothetical parasites that use humans as a definitive host that have evolved, in isolation, on Australia (an island). Which of the 4 (described below) would be most likely to successfully colonize Madagascar (another island, distant from Australia, and already populated by humans) if a group of 8 infected Australian humans emigrated to Madagascar? a. A trematode that uses direct penetration to infect humans and has 3 intermediate hosts. b. A cestode with an indirect life cycle and trophic transmission c. An apicomplexan transmitted to humans by a biological vector. d. A nematode with a direct life cycle and fecal-oral transmission.
