Tape worm is a long parasitic organism which lack alimentary canal (digestive system) so it lives on the product of digestion of its host which it absorbs through its cuticule.

It has head with sucker (used to hold and pierce the intestine of the host) at the extreme of it head.

Next to the head is the vaguely segmented and narrow neck called Young proglottids, this grows larger and wider to form mature proglottids (segments)

As the matured segments at the posterior end of the worm break of to form new and independent organism, the narrow neck also grow in gradual replacement of the matured one that broke off.
