Vedclass · Answer

(C) Parasites exhibit several morphological and physiological adaptations to survive within or on their hosts.These adaptations include:$1$. Loss of unnecessary sense organs $(a)$.$2$. Presence of adhesive organs $(b)$ and suckers $(c)$ to attach to the host.$3$. High reproductive capacity $(d)$ to ensure the survival of the species.$4$. Parasites often have a reduced or poorly developed digestive system because they absorb pre-digested nutrients from the host. Therefore,statement $(e)$ is incorrect.
