monogenea are ectoparasitic while trematoda are endoparasitic
1 answer
Liver flukes belong to the class Trematoda in the phylum Platyhelminthes.
2 answers
Trematoda are more evolutionarily advanced because they show the traits of cephalization, an organ system, and have a lophophore. While nematoda have none of these traits.

The phylum that contains the classes Trematoda, Cestoda, and Turbellaria is Platyhelminthes. These classes are all part of the same phylum due to their similar characteristics, such as being flatworms with bilateral symmetry and simple body structures.

Platyhelminthes as a phylum is divided into 4 classes. The tapeworm class (Cestoda) is endoparasitic. This means they live parasitically inside a host. There is also the ectoparasitic class Monogenea which lives parasitically on the outside of a host.
There are marine specimens and those that live in other moist environments. This is the class Turbellaria.

The simplest bilateral animal is considered to be a flatworm, such as a planarian. These animals have a simple body structure with bilateral symmetry, a central nervous system, and a digestive system. They are an example of simple, yet successful, bilateral organisms.

Flatworms are classified into three main classes: Turbellaria (free-living flatworms, such as planarians), Trematoda (flukes, which are parasitic flatworms), and Cestoda (tapeworms, also parasitic). Each class has distinct characteristics and lifestyles.

Platyhelminthes, also known as flatworms, are characterized by a flattened body shape with bilateral symmetry. They lack a body cavity (coelom) and possess a primitive nervous system. Many flatworms are parasitic and have simple digestive systems with a single opening for both ingestion and waste elimination.

Nematodes; common roundworms (Ascaris lumbricoides), hookworms, whipworms, pinworms, heart worms, Strongyloides, Stercoralis, Ancylostoma, caninum, toxocara worm and trichinosis. Size can vary from .2 to 35 centimeters.
Roundworms look similar to an earthworm and can produce 200,000 eggs daily. Approximately 1,008 million people are infected, making it the most common worldwide. The most frequent symptom from roundworms is upper abdominal discomfort. Other symptoms are asthma, eye pain, insomnia, and rashes due to the secretions or waste products from the worms.

The flatworms, or Platyhelminthes or Plathelminthes are a phylum of relatively simple bilaterian, unsegmented, soft-bodied invertebrates. Unlike other bilaterians, they are acoelomates, (having no body cavity), and no specialized circulatory and respiratory organs, which restricts them to having flattened shapes that allow oxygen and nutrients to pass through their bodies by diffusion. The digestive cavity has only one opening for both the ingestion (intake of nutrients) and egestion (removal of undigested wastes); as a result, the food cannot be processed continuously.
In traditional zoology texts, Platyhelminthes are divided into Turbellaria, which are mostly nonparasitic animals such as planarians, and three entirely parasitic groups: Cestoda, Trematoda and Monogenea; however, since the turbellarians have since been proven not to be monophyletic, this classification is now deprecated. Free-living flatworms are mostly predators, and live in water or in shaded, humid terrestrial environments such as leaf litter. Cestodes (tapeworms) and trematodes (flukes) have complex life-cycles, with mature stages that live as parasites in the digestive systems of fish or land vertebrates, and intermediate stages that infest secondary hosts. The eggs of trematodes are excreted from their main hosts, whereas adult cestodes generate vast numbers of hermaphroditic, segment-like proglottids which detach when mature, are excreted, and then release eggs. Unlike the other parasitic groups, the monogeneans are external parasites infesting aquatic animals, and their larvae metamorphose into the adult form after attaching to a suitable host.

Transmission of parasites occurs when parasites are passed from one host to another, either directly through physical contact or indirectly through vectors such as mosquitoes or fleas. This can happen through activities like sharing contaminated food or water, sexual contact, or exposure to infected soil. Parasites can also be transmitted from animals to humans, or vice versa.

Organisms are classified into seven main taxonomic ranks: kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. This system of classification helps scientists organize and categorize the immense diversity of living organisms based on their shared characteristics and evolutionary relationships.
