| 1. Sporozoites- mosquito takes a blood meal injecting sporozoites (form of microbe) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| 2. Sporozoites infect liver cells and multiply like crazy. Forms a shizont (host cell infected) merozoites are released out to blood |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| 3. Merozoites start infected RBC –latch on, multiply and create another shizont (different than liver cell) this is when chills and fever and flu0like symptoms start. |
|

Definition
| 4 Some differentiate and form gamets- meiosis. This allows for sex cells to form. Another mosquito bites person and takes up the produced gamet. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| 5. Gamets enter mosquito, fuse together= oocyst and form sporozoites. Evolutionary advantage is if different gamets are in the mosquito= more diverse genes |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| 6. Liver cell that doesn’t form shizont would go into Latent stage-> wait until it wakes up and then disease starts over again. |
