Some structures that helps the flatworms to adapt as parasites are :

1. The parasitic flatworms have hooks in them to attach or stick to the host organisms' body.

2. They also have a structure which helps them to absorb nutrients from the host organisms through their surface of body.

3. They also have special cells known as flame cells which plays a major role in their excretion and osmoregulation.

4. Examples of flatworms includes : Fasciola, Schistosoma and Taenia.
