A parasite is an organism that lives in or on a host cell. Parasites rely on the host for nutrients and can cause harm to the host they live in. Examples include Plasmodium, the parasite that causes malaria, and tapeworms.
A host cell is a cell that is infected or invaded by a virus, bacteria, or parasite that uses the host's cellular machinery to replicate or survive. In the context of parasitology, it refers to the cell that a parasite lives in or feeds on.
It takes about 8-30 days for the malaria parasite to complete its growth in the mosquito before it is capable of infecting a human host. This period allows the parasite to develop in the mosquito's salivary glands, where it can be transmitted to humans when the mosquito bites.
An acellular obligatory parasite is a type of parasite that lacks cellular structure and relies on a host cell's machinery for survival and reproduction. Examples include viruses, viroids, and prions. These parasites cannot replicate or carry out metabolic functions independent of a host cell.
One pleiotropic effect of sickle cell syndrome is increased resistance to malaria. The genetic mutation that causes sickle cell disease also confers some protection against malaria infection, as the malaria parasite has difficulty surviving in the altered red blood cells of individuals with sickle cell trait.

Malaria parasite is a protozoan.
No, the parasite that causes malaria is not a type of euglenoid. The parasite that causes malaria is a type of protozoan.

Chickenpox is caused by a virus, and malaria is caused by a parasite.
Malaria is a protist that is a deadly parasite.
An example of a dependent protist is an apicomplexan parasite like Plasmodium, the causative agent of malaria. This protist depends on a host organism for survival and reproduction, and cannot live independently outside of a host cell.
