Remember that following the trophozoites stage, malaria parasites may enter one of two separate pathways: (1) Sexual replication: male or female gametocyte are formed that are taken up by mosquitoes allowing the invasion of new hosts. (2) Asexual replication: schizonts are formed eventually forming individual merozoites that expand the infection by invading new red cells. ------------------------------------------------------------------------...")
