Q11: The infectious stage of plasmodium that enters the human body is : (NEET 2020)
(a) Female gametocytes
(b) Male gametocytes
(c) Trophozoites
(d) Sporozoites
Ans. (d)
Solution.
The life cycle of plasmodium that infects humans follows three stages:
Life Cycle of Plasmodium(i) infection of a human with sporozoites
(ii) asexual reproduction
(iii) sexual reproduction.
The two first take place exclusively in the human body, while the third one starts in the human body and is completed into the mosquito organism. The human infection begins when an infected female anopheles mosquito bites a person and injects infected with sporozoites saliva into the blood circulation i.e., the first life stage of plasmodium (stage of infection).
