Do the malaria parasites transmitted between different groups of organisms behave the same way?
No, they do not! The evidence shows that malaria parasites that infect lizards have two kinds of ribosomes and malaria parasites that infect lizards have only one.
How is malaria caused?
Malaria is caused by a parasite called Plasmodium, which is transmitted via the bites of infected mosquitoes. In the human body, the parasites multiply in the liver, and then infect red blood cells. Usually, people get malaria by being bitten by an infective female Anopheles mosquito. Only Anophelesmosquitoes can transmit malaria and they must have been infected through a previous blood meal taken on an infected person. When a mosquito bites an infected person, a small amount of blood is taken in which contains microscopic malaria parasites. About 1 week later, when the mosquito takes its next blood meal, these parasites mix with the mosquito's saliva and are injected into the person being bitten.
What do mosquitoes use to spread malaria?
Malaria is caused by any one of four species of one-celled parasites, called Plasmodium. The parasite is spread to people by the female Anopheles mosquito, which feeds on human blood. Although four species of malaria parasites can infect humans and cause illness, only malaria caused by Plasmodium falciparum is potentially life-threatening.
Why does HIV infect the white blood cells only?
Because,white blood cell is only make antibodies against any invader that come into the body. Therefore, they could prevent the creation of antibodies and they could also spread in the body.
Why cant every virus infect every living cell?
Viruses can only infect specific cells that have the necessary receptors on their surface for the virus to attach to. Each virus is adapted to infect specific types of cells based on these interactions. This specificity limits the range of cells that a virus can successfully infect.
Can cats get malaria?
Yes, every thing can be effected by malaria is a protozoa it is a pathengenic organism that evan plants can get, along with humans and animals.
Are the only blood cells that function entirely in blood vessels?
The only blood cells that function entirely within the blood vessels are red blood cells.
Why do man mostly get color blindness?
You will never find a woman who is colorblind, they can only carry the gene. You see a woman has two sex cells (XX) and neither of these cells are infect-able they can only carry the disorder. A male on the other hand has sex cells XY and our Y cells are infect-able by the disorder.
Is malaria only spread through mosqitoes?
Malaria normally spreads by bite of infected mosquitoes. Rarely the disease is transmitted by transfusion of infected blood.
What intermediate organism can only reproduce in living cells?
Viruses are the intermediate organisms that can only reproduce in living cells since they lack the cellular machinery necessary for replication. They infect a host cell, take over the cell's machinery to replicate, and then release new viruses to infect other cells.
Why do dogs not catch your cold?
The common cold in humans is caused by rhinovirus, which is pretty specific to humans. There are other strains of rhinovirus that infect dogs, but those strains don't infect humans. The barrier for this is the type of protein on the surface of the cells of the upper respiratory tract - there are different proteins on human cells than there are on canine cells. The virus is very well adapted to only one species, so a human-adapted rhinovirus can only infect humans while a canine-adapted rhinovirus can only infect dogs.
Is there only one type of blood cells?
No , there are many types of blood cells .
