Phylum Cnidaria Part 7: Myxozoa and Polypodiozoa

The video tutorial explores the Mixes Owens, a group of obligate parasitic organisms initially classified as protozoans but later identified as highly derived Nidarians. It details their complex life cycle involving intermediate and definitive hosts, and their economic impact on fish stocks. The tutorial also covers Polypodium Zoa, another parasitic organism with a unique life cycle. The study concludes with a reflection on the phylum Naderia, emphasizing the complexity and diversity of the animal kingdom.

Discuss the diseases caused by mixes Owens and their effects on fish.

What is the relationship between polypodium zoa and mixes Owens?

How does the development of polypodium zoa correlate with the host fish's oogenesis?
