MedFriendly Contest #14: Name that Parasite

Welcome to the 14^th MedFriendly Blog contest. The rules are simple. The winner is the first person to write a post in the comment section of this blog entry that answers the featured question. Today’s question is: What is the name of the ribbon-shaped parasite pictured below that lives inside of the intestines.

The prize is your name on the MedFriendly Wall of Fame. The Wall of Fame contains the date of the contest, question, and answer. Length of the contest is one week. Good luck! The answer to last week’s contest can be found on the Wall of Fame.
