On the average, mosquitoes take one millionth of a gallon of blood with each bite. That means it would take 1,120,000 bites to drain all the blood from an average adult human.
We have to go through some steps to answer this question
1>> what amount of blood can a single mosquito suck
2>> the amount of blood in our body
the average mosquito can drink 0.001-0.01 milliliters of blood
the average adult human has roughly 5 liters of blood.
so it would take between 500,000-5,000,000 mosquitoes to suck that adult's body dry.
Anopheles is a genus and they have both males and females. However, as with all mosquitoes only the females suck blood.
not all mosquitoes carry diseases. But if they drink a diseased persons blood they can easily pass on the disease by passing on the blood to another.

Mosquitoes are a small bug that are harmless, but most of all a nuisance because they consume blood from living vertebrates, including humans. It is stated that mosquitoes have forty-seven teeth.
The deadliest animal in the rain forest is a mosquito. Mosquitoes suck human blood in order to reproduce, so only the female mosquito bites you. When biting you they can infect you with deadly diseases such as malaria, yellow fever and typhoid fever. mosquitoes have killed more people on earth than all other animals combined.
"Parasitism benefits creates such as mosquitoes which want to steal all your blood"
No. The usual garden slugs eat vegetation. Leeches, on the other hand, do suck blood, and they look a lot like slugs
Given enough time.
No, only the female mosquitos feed on blood. Mosquitoes primarily feed on nectar from flowers. Both males and females will feed in this manner, sucking the nectar through a proboscis, much the same as a butterfly does. However, the female is also capable of drinking blood, an act called haematophagy. Females do not require blood to survive, but they need supplements, such as protein and iron, to enable them to develop and lay their eggs. The female Mosquitoes do not actually "bite". They will actually pierce the skin with their sharp proboscis, injecting a mild painkiller as they do so, to numb the pain, and will then proceed to suck the host's blood.
Only female mosquitoes bite, though all mosquitoes live on the sugar found in plant nectar, not on blood. Female mosquitoes bite to obtain necessary proteins from blood so they can produce eggs. Proteins in human and animal blood are necessary for the female mosquito to produce fertile eggs; since males cannot produce eggs they have no need for blood. Females require a new blood "meal" for every nest they lay, and produce about 250 eggs per meal.
they suck your blood and the most dangerous nits out of all are the red nits
