उत्तर
- The asexual phase of the life cycle takes place in human beings, while the sexual phase occurs in the female Anopheles mosquito.
- The gametocyte is the infectious stage that contains the uninucleate, lancet-shaped sporozoite (approximately 1 x 7 µm). Sporozoites are produced during sexual reproduction in the midgut of Anopheles mosquitos and migrate to the salivary glands.
