A sporozoite is the cell form that infects new hosts. A merozoite is the result of merogony that takes place within a host cell.

In Plasmodium, for example, the sporozoites are cells that produce in the mosquito's salivary glands, leave the mosquito during a blood meal, and drive liver cells (hepatocytes), where they generate. Cells infected with sporozoites ultimately burst, delivering merozoites into the bloodstream. Merozoites are non-motile.A merozoite is a daughter cell of a protozoan parasite. Merozoites are the consequence of asexual propagation. Sporozoites are designed by sporogony, a type of sexual or asexual reproduction by multiple fission of a spore or zygote, representative of many sporozoans.

As a result of mitosis, each of your body cells is

c. is genetically identical to all others

Explanation:

During cellular division, the chromosomes, that have already duplicated, condense and fasten to spindle fibers that pull one copy of every body to opposite sides of the cell. The result's 2 genetically identical daughter nuclei. the remainder of the cell might then still divide by organic process to supply 2 daughter cells.
