Differentiate Sporogony from Schizogony
|
Sporogony- the asexual method of reproduction; occurs in definitive host (Mosquito)
Schizogony-the sexual method of repoduction; occurs in intermediate host (Man) |
|
What is/are the end product/s of Schizogony
|
Gamete and Merozoite
|
|
What is a Schizont
|
The sporozoan body during schizogony which includes the period of initial growth to the complete splitting up of the nucleus with merozoite production
|
|
What is a Gamete
|
A mature germ cell that is capable of functioning in fertilization or conjugation and contains the haploid number of chromosomes of the somatic cell
|
|
What is/are the type/s of Gamete
|
Macrogamete (female)
Microgamete (male) |
|
Differentiate Thick smear from Thin smear
|
Thick smear - preferred for rapid diagnosis (Quantitative)
Thin smear - preferred for specie identification (Qualitative) |
|
Differentiate Qualitative from Quantitative
|
Qualitative - thin smear for rapid diagnosis
