उत्तर
This statement is false.
Explanation:
Ascariasis is actually caused by an intestinal roundworm called Ascaris lumbricoides, not by the tapeworm Taenia solium. Taenia solium is an intestinal tapeworm that causes a different disease known as taeniasis or cysticercosis. Therefore, Ascariasis is caused by Ascaris lumbricoides, an intestinal roundworm, and not by Taenia solium, the intestinal tapeworm.
