The human parasite that resembles an earthworm is the Ascaris lumbricoides, commonly known as the giant roundworm. These parasites can grow up to 35 cm in length and have a cylindrical shape with a tapered end, similar to an earthworm. Ascaris lumbricoides infects the human intestines and can cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and malnutrition if left untreated. Proper hygiene and sanitation practices can help prevent the transmission of this parasite.
