roundworm

Ascaris lumbricoides, a type of roundworm from pigs that has been reported in a few cases in humans, can cause issues with the lungs or growth problems in children in severe cases.

Ecdysozoans include all the arthropods, including insects, crustaceans, and spiders, as well as tardigrades, and roundworms, or nematodes.

People can become infected if they ingest soil, dirt, water or other material contaminated with raccoon feces, which could contain roundworm eggs.

The researchers also found that computer simulations based on the whole-brain activity of roundworms more accurately reflect real-brain activity when they include so-called "noise," or probabilistic elements.

Commonly referred to as roundworms, nematodes are a diverse group of organisms found in almost every habitat on Earth.
