Answer and Explanation:

HIV is a sexually transmitted disease that is caused by AIDS, a virus. Malaria is a protozoan disease that is cause by <em>plasmodium spp</em>. Both the virus and sporozoites of plasmodium live inside humans. However, in malaria, the sporozoites are inactive form of the parasite and they live in the human liver. The human being acts as an intermediate host for the life cycle to be complete.

In HIV, the virus incorporates its DNA into the host(human) genome and uses the resources to produce proteins that are found in the blood. Using a condom helps limit the transmission of HIV because the virus lives in the blood cells but does not affect the transmission of malaria because the sporozoites live in the liver and other organs. HIV can be transmitted sexually, transfusion with contaminated blood, sharing of infected needles and syringes while malaria is only transmitted through a mosquito bite.

Mammals reproduce through a process called sexual reproduction. During this process, which involves two A.
Wewaii [24]

With sexual reproduction a sperm coming from the male must unite with the female egg. Both are needed for this kind of reproduction, and an offspring CAN'T  be formed without both. Unlike asexual reproduction, the offspring of a mammal reproducing sexually is DIFFERENT from both parents, since the offspring is a combination of both the mother and the father.

An easy to remember example I use when thinking about what sexual reproduction is:

the formation of a human child. A mother with her egg and the father with the sperm is BOTH needed. If you think about siblings that come from the same parents (and therefore same gene pool) they are not all exactly identical to each other. Although they may have similar features, they look different and are NOT genetically identical

Therefor for your question the answer is D.

Hope this helped!
