Answer:

<u>A. red blood cells containing malaria</u>

Explanation:

Malaria is a disease-causing pathogen in humans. It is caused by species of the parasite <em>Plasmodium sp.</em><em>,</em> which is transmitted as sporozoites by the Anopheles mosquito upon biting the host. These travel through the bloodstream to the liver where they mature into merozoites. These reenter the bloodstream and mature into trophozoites and schizonts that produce more merozoites.

When they multiply within the red blood cell, they <u>burst the red blood cell open</u>, and go on to infect other cells. This infection's symptoms are cyclic and include high fever, chills and other flu-like symptoms.

Malaria is a deadly illness, causing harm to its hosts, and in many cases death. <u>Thus, this cannot be defined as symbiosis, which is typically beneficial to both organisms.</u>

The products of mitosis normally ______________
Anarel [89]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

Mitosis is a type of cell division used by the organisms to produce the same or identical daughter cells to their parent cell.

The mitosis process forms two identical daughter cells from a single parent cell and the identical cells produced contain the same genetic material or same ploidy number as of parent, the reason also known as the equational division.

Since the daughter cells are clones to their parent cell with the same genetic and cytoplasmic content, therefore, Option-C is the correct answer.
