✔️ Female Anopheles mosquitoes contains a parasite named Plasmodium vivax which is the cell of Malaria.
✔️Anopheles mosquitoes picks up the plasmodium cell from infected person, while biting that person.
✔️ When a Anopheles mosquito bites a person, the malaria cell is transferred from Anopheles mosquito to the person.

Heya!!
➡️Malaria is one of the oldest known diseases. Since the Romans associated the disease with the foul air of the marshes and swamps, they called it malaria. Prevalence of malaria continues to be one of the major health problems of developing countries. Four species of Plasmodium are the common agents. The vector is the female Anopheles mosquito.
➡️The symptoms of the disease include chill and shivering, followed by rapid rise temp, accompanied by headaches and nausea. The fever subsides with profuse sweating. The cycle is repeated if proper treatment is not available. Blood smears taken during fever show the presence of Plasmodium.
➡️Malaria caused by four species of protozoan parasites: Plasmodium vivax, P. falciparum, P. malariae, P. ovale. The protozoans enter our bloodstream when a female Anopheles mosquito carrying them bites us. Charles Laveran discovered that malaria is caused by a protozoan parasites Plasmodium. He detected amoeboid forms of Plasmodium in RBCs of some patients. Benign tertian malaria is marked by chill, fever and sweat attacks that occur every 48 hours. Vivax malaria, the most common form of malaria, is caused by Plasmodium vivax. It is rarely fatal.
➡️The occurrence of malaria can be prevented in two ways:
First, by breaking contact between Anopheles mosquito and human being, and second, by not allowing the mosquitoes to bread.
Contact can be broken by using mosquito nets, mosquito repellents, etc.
And the breading of mosquitoes can be prevented by eliminating breeding places and by killing the eggs, larvae and adults with the help of chemicals or biological agents.
Hope it helps✌️✌️
