Why the mosquito which act as a carrier of malaria Not infected by malaria

Meghna Thapar 5 years, 6 months ago

Malaria is caused by single-celled Plasmodium parasites.  But mosquitoes don't have red blood cells – their blood is a somewhat colourless fluid containing the blood cell equivalent called haemocytes – so the parasites instead escape to the mosquito's saliva from the gut. Only certain species of mosquitoes of the Anopheles genus—and only females of those species—can transmit malaria. Malaria is caused by a one-celled parasite called a Plasmodium. Female Anopheles mosquitoes pick up the parasite from infected people when they bite to obtain blood needed to nurture their eggs.
