1. The document appears to be a set of answers to multiple choice or matching questions about various parasites. It lists characteristics and features of parasites like Entamoeba histolytica, Giardia, Trichomonas, Balamuthia, Naegleria, and Acanthamoeba. 2. It also lists some metabolic pathways and processes of different parasites, such as glycolysis, the TCA cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, and ethanol production. 3. The document asks how Entamoeba histolytica and Naegleria infections in the brain can be diagnosed.

1. These are the answers I got so far, no idea if they are correct (i wrote them in same order)
1)
- D,K,G,L
- D,A,G,F
-F,E
-E,J
-E,J,L
I'm unsure about the rest.
Entamoeba histolytica a) Mature cyst w/ 4 nuclei b) Immature cyst w/ 1 nucleus Giardia c)
Glutathione present d) Cyst is infective stage Trichomonas e) ETS present in cytoplasm f)
Axostyle present Balamuthia g) Microtubules presenting trophs h) Cytochromes present
Naegleria I) Karyosome present j) Flagellated stage in man Acanthamoeba k) Chromatoid bodies
present 1) Can cause skin pathology m) Never diagnosed by fecal exam 2) Matching Entamoeba
histolytica a) Substrate level phosphorylation b) Oxidative phosphorylation Giardia c) TCA
cycle present d) Glycolysis present Trichomonas e) Polyamine synthesis for energy f) Ethanol
produced anaerobically Naegleria g) De novo synthesis of purine h) De novo synthesis of fatty
acids 3) How can you diagnose whether a person has Entamoeba histolytica or Naegleria in the
brain?|
