Yes. Many of these parasites have more than one hosts. For example, Plasmodium is a protozoan that causes malaria, disease of the blood. Two hosts are involved in Plasmodium's life cycle--humans and a species of mosquitoes found in tropical areas. The disease spreads when a healthy mosquito bites a person with malaria, becomes infected, and then bites a healthy person. Symptoms of malaria include high fevers that alternate with severe chills. These symptoms can last for weeks, then disappear, only to reappear a few months later

How do sporozoans eat?

Sporozoans, a group of parasitic protists, primarily obtain nutrients through absorption. They lack a digestive system and instead absorb organic substances directly from their host's tissues or bodily fluids. This process allows them to derive essential nutrients necessary for their growth and reproduction while residing within the host organism. Some sporozoans can also form specialized structures to facilitate nutrient uptake.
