Malaria parasites. Image 2 of 10. Coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM) of malaria in a sectioned human red blood cell. The trophozoite stage of malaria (Plasmodium sp.,brown),which inhabits the red blood cells (green),is undergoing asexual replication (schizogony). It is now known as a schizont,producing several merozoites,which burst out of the cell at maturity and invade other blood cells. The periodic release of merozoites causes severe fevers in the host. Magnification: x9300 at 6x7cm size. For the complete malaria parasite life cycle,see images M210/197-206 | |
