Question

Describe the cycle of Golgi in the life history of Plasmodium Vivax.

Answer 1

The malaria parasite life cycle involves two hosts. During a blood meal, a malaria-infected female Anopheles mosquito inoculates sporozoites into the human host . Sporozoites infect liver cells and mature into schizonts, which rupture and release merozoites .

Answer 2

Plasmodium Vivax is the malaria parasite which involves two hosts in its life cycle. While taking the blood meal, the female Anopheles mosquito which is infected by malaria injects the sporozoites into the human body. Sporozoites infect he cells of liver and gets mature to form schizonts, which then rupture to release the merozoites that live in the liver until any treatment is given and cause relapses by living in the bloodstream for weeks or even years. Merozoites infect red blood cells producing gametocytes that are again ingested by the mosquito.
