Image Description

Description: Under a magnification of 125X, this photomicrograph of an unstained sample, revealed the mouthpart morphology exhibited by an Ancylostoma duodenale hookworm

The hookworm uses these sharp cutting teeth to grasp firmly to the intestinal wall, and while remaining fastened in place, ingests the host’s blood, obtaining its nutrients in this fashion.
