MAlaria is contracted by a vector known as the
anopheles mosquito
-
What kind of host is where the sexual cycle is completed?
definitive host(anopheles mosquitos)
-
Where the aasexual part of the life cycle completes is known as this kind of host?
Intermediate host (humans)
-
The infection stage of Malaria is called? It is injected into your bloodstream when a moquito bites you.
sporozoites
-
Where is the target area for these sporozoites travel to?
to your liver.
-
what kind of cell division do the sporozoites undergo. How do they multiply?
By schizogomy
-
where are merozoites produced
the liver
-
merozoites are released into the bloodstream and infect what kind of cells?
red blood cells
-
this developes into a ring stage in the red blood cell when a person has malaria
merozoite
-
When RBC burst in Malaria what exits them to infect new RBCs and others turn into male and female gametocysts
merozoite
-
How does sexual reproduction happen in mosquitos?
The male or female mosquito will bite its host and ingest the gametocytes of the opposite sex where they will combine into a zygote
-
After the misquitoe has sexually reproduced a zygote what happens?
It results in sporozoites that migrate to the salivary glands of the misquito.
-
Where do you get toxisplasmoisis from? Who
definitive source is the cat, intermediate host are mouse, human and live stock
-
How does toxiplamsma gondii enter your body?
From eating undercoooked food that containing tissue cyst, or from idestion of oocytes from changing the cat litter box
-
what kind of life cycle does toxiplamsma have?
A complex one
-
Toxisplasmosis is from a cat who craps immature oocytes which then mature and divide into 4 ?
sporozoites
-
If toxiplasmosis gondii cannot complete its cycle inhumans or the intermediate host where does it get completed?
The cat who is infected has to eat example a mourse that is infected to complete the sexual cycle
-
What does crytosporodiosis cause?
diarrhea
-
How do you contract crytosporosis?
From recreational water by ingesting oocyttes that contain sporozoites from contaminated water or fecal-oral from day care
-
Can crytospordium be killed by chlorine?
no
-

African sleeping sickness or Trypanosomiasis
-
American trypanosomis is also known as

around the mouth or face
