Vedclass · Answer

(B) In the life cycle of $Plasmodium$ (the malarial parasite),the sporozoites enter the human body through the bite of an infected female $Anopheles$ mosquito.After initial development in the liver,the parasites enter the red blood cells $(RBCs)$.Inside the $RBCs$,the parasite transforms into the $Trophozoite$ stage.This $Trophozoite$ stage is characterized by an irregular,amoeboid shape,which allows it to feed on the host cell's hemoglobin.Therefore,the amoeboid stage of $Plasmodium$ in human $RBCs$ is the $Trophozoite$ stage.

List-$I$	List-$II$
$(i)$ Pre-erythrocytic cycle	$(A)$ Metacrypto merozoites enter RBCs and become spherical
$(ii)$ Exo-erythrocytic cycle	$(B)$ Sporozoites present in saliva enter human blood
$(iii)$ Erythrocytic cycle	$(C)$ Break liver cells and enter the blood

Which stage of the life cycle of $Plasmodium$ in human red blood cells is known as the amoeboid stage?
