Malaria is transmitted from human to human via mosquito bites. The malaria parasite, Plasmodium, grows in the human liver and spreads to the bloodstream when transmitted via mosquito bites. There are four main species of Plasmodium parasites that cause malaria in humans. The parasite's lifecycle involves multiplication in the liver and red blood cells, causing symptoms like fever, chills, and nausea. Malaria spreads through mosquito bites and can be prevented by reducing standing water where mosquitoes breed.

2. Malaria is transmitted from human to human by mosquitoes

3. Malaria is a infectious disease from the parasite plasmodium The parasite grows in the human liver and spreads to the bloodstream Disease is passed to another human host by mosquitoes carrying the parasite after biting an infected human

5. Transmitted by human to human  mosquito bites human  human gets infected  passes to mosquito  mosquito bites another person  person gets infected

7. Four species of the parasite plasmodium for malaria in humans: Plasmodium vivax, Plasmodium malaria, Plasmodium ovale, and Plasmodium falciparum.

8. Plasmodium malaria

9. Plasmodium Ovale

10. The first stage of plasmodium development in humans takes place in the liver. When the more mature plasmodium escapes from the liver and enters the bloodstream, it infects a red blood cell and multiplies, causing the red blood cell to burst open after about 2 to 3 days and to release a new crop of parasites (plasmodium). The cycle of invasion, multiplication, and red blood cell rupture may be repeated many times.

11. Dizziness, fever, dry colds, shaking within 4 to 5 hours after bite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, sweating, abdominal and muscle pains.

12. Clean water sources frequently, fish are the enemy of mosquitoes Remove/ eliminate standing water in puddles, pots, fountains etc. Utilize mosquito nets and mosquito sprays to prevent contraction and reduce concentration of mosquitoes.

13. Hydrate after feeling nauseous and dizzy Sleep early to prevent further fevering Medication for fever Drink plenty electrolytes to build up strength in immune system Build up on vitamin C and quinine water also to further enhance strength of immune system Pills to prevent further diarrhea

14. Expansion Diffusion can occur when a person has malaria and travels somewhere and another mosquito bites them. The mosquito adopts the infection and bites someone else giving another person the disease. Relocation Diffusion is almost the same it’s just the person moves to another area (e.g. a different country), allowing a different species to bite the person and spreading the disease from a new origin. Contagious Diffusion because it can be spread from the same mosquito (unlike dengue where the mosquito dies), so that one mosquito can infect several persons.

15. Malaria is a contagious infectious disease, that occurs often in Less Developed Countries (LEDCs) ex. Regions in Africa, Asia, South America and Mexico. Occurs mainly in hot and humid tropical areas near the equator Mainly near swamps, lakes, and standing water where mosquitoes breed
