Vedclass · Answer

(C) The life cycle of $Plasmodium$ involves two hosts: humans and female $Anopheles$ mosquitoes.In the human host,$Plasmodium$ undergoes asexual reproduction (schizogony and gametogony).When a female $Anopheles$ mosquito bites an infected person,it ingests the gametocytes.Fertilization (fusion of male and female gametes) takes place in the lumen of the stomach (midgut) of the female $Anopheles$ mosquito to form a zygote.The zygote then transforms into an ookinete,which penetrates the stomach wall to form an oocyst.
