My previous post was regarding malaria’s symptoms, today I am discussing the causes of
malaria. In humans malaria is caused mainly by parasite-infected mosquito’s biting it’s transmitted via the bites of infected mosquitoes. In the human body, the parasites multiply in the liver, and then infect red blood cells. Usually, people get malaria by being bitten by an
infective Parasitic.



When a mosquito bites an infected person, a small amount of blood is taken in which contains
microscopic malaria parasites. About 1 week later, when the mosquito takes its next blood
meal, these parasites mix with the mosquito's saliva and are injected into the person being
bitten. The malaria parasite is found in red blood cells of an infected person, malaria can
also be transmitted through blood transfusion, organ transplant, or the shared use of
needles or syringes contaminated with blood.

There are four species Parasitic falciparum, Parasitic malariae, Parasitic vivax, and Parasitic ovale .which are the main cause of malaria. Parasitic falciparum is the most common cause of
infection and is responsible for about 80% of all malaria cases, and is also responsible for
about 90% of the deaths from malaria it is found mostly in the tropics and subtropics.
The mosquito infected with P. malariae, P. vivax, and P. ovale occur all over the tropical
regions of the world. P. ovale mainly is found in western Africa
Even birds, reptiles, monkeys, chimpanzees and rodents are also infested by Parasitic
Plasmodium species.
