Gametocytes, the precursors of male and female gametes (egg and sperm) are formed in the human host. They do not cause the signs and symptoms of the disease but are a way that the parasite can transmit malaria to another host.
Therefore they are considered to have sexual cycle.

What phylum group of protozoans are often parasites?
The phylum group of protozoans that are often parasites include the Apicomplexa, also known as the Sporozoans. These parasites are known for causing diseases such as malaria, toxoplasmosis, and cryptosporidiosis. They have complex life cycles that involve both sexual and asexual reproduction.
Are parasites asexually or sexually?

Is it possible to have no sexual feelings at all?
It's possible, it is known as being "asexual" meaning not sexually attracted to any gender.
What is the main purpose of sexual reproduction?
Increase population genetic diversity beyond that possible with asexual reproduction. This makes the population more resistant to disease and parasites.
Many parasites reproduce asexually suggest why this might be an advantage for the parasitic mode of life?
Asexual reproduction allows parasites to quickly produce offspring without the need for a partner, speeding up population growth and adaptation to changing environments. This strategy also ensures that genetic information is passed down more efficiently, leading to higher transmission rates and increased chances of survival in a competitive host environment. Additionally, asexual reproduction can help parasites maintain a stable and successful lineage within a specific host species.
What are Heterotrophs are also known as?
heterotrophs are also known as 'other feeders' Heterotrophs are also known as parasites or saprophytes depending on their mode of getting food.
