Answer

Solution

Viviparity means giving birth to young ones instead of laying eggs.

⇒ Trichinella spiralis (trichina worm) is viviparous: the female gives birth to juveniles (larvae) which migrate to the muscles.

⇒ Ascaris, Ancylostoma (hookworm) and Enterobius (pinworm) are oviparous; the females lay eggs.
