The correct answer is B, Heterophyes heterophyes.
The metacercaria of Heterophyes encyst in the flesh of fish and are infectious when ingested.
The other listed parasites do not have fish as a vehicle of
transmission. Freshwater plants are the source of
transmission for Fasciola hepatica and Fasciolopsis
buski. Schistosoma mansoni
produce infective cercariae that penetrate the skin to
initiate human infection.
