Sporozoa - Apicomplexa
A. General Properties
This is a large group (30,000 species) of parasitic non-photosynthetic protists that wholly lack flagellated stages with the exception of male gametes.
1. Common cellular features of the Group
These organisms all have an apical complex at some point in their life cycle and are homogenous in cellular organization. Their organization includes the following common features:
a. The apical complex is a set of secretory and cytoskeletal structures that enables the young parasite to enter a host cell. It consists of several components:

The fifth Phylum of the Protist Kingdom, known as Apicomplexa, gathers several species of obligate intracellular protozoan parasites classified as Sporozoa or Sporozoans, because they form reproductive cells known as spores. Many sporozoans are parasitic and pathogenic species, such as Plasmodium (P. falciparum, P. malariae, P. vivax), Toxoplasma gondii, Pneumocysts carinii, Coccidian, Babesia, Cryptosporidum (C. parvum, C. muris), and Gregarian
