23
Q

The cell would divide across the length

A

Longitudinal Binary Fisson

24
Q

The cell would divide across the width

A

Transverse Binary fisson

25
Parasite found in transverse binary fission
Ciliates
26
Two fissions involved in asexual mode of reproduction
A. Binary fission B. Multiple fisson
27
One parent cell will undergo repeated division. Occurs in apicomplexa
Multiple fission
28
What is the dividing form of apicomplexa
Schizonts
29
When the schizont ruptures, it produces individual daughter cells called______
Merozoites
30
Division of the cytoplasm
Cytokinesis
31
Development of schizonts
Schizogony
32
From schizont different meroizoites are formed
Merogony
33
What sexual mode of reproduction is Formed from two 2 different parent cell
Sexual Mode of Reproduction
34
2 process in sexual mode of reproduction
Syngamy and Conjugation
35
Sexually di development of gametocytes
Gametogony
36
Male gametocyte
Microgametocyte
37
Female gametocyte
Macrogametocyte
38
Microgametocyte would transform into?
Microgamete
39
Macrogametocyte would mature into?
Macrogamete
40
Syngamy is also known as?
Fertilization
41
When the microgamete fertilizes the macrogamete what would be produced?
Zygote
42
In apicomplexans, the cystic form is an?
Oocyst
43
Oocyst would divide into multiple cells
Sporozoites
44
Involves gene recombination
Conjugation
45
Occurs in ciliates under sexual mode of reproduction
Conjugation
46
One human ciliate what parasite
Balantidium Coli
47
What are the two different type of nuclei in Balanditium Coli
Macronucleus Micronucleus
48
3 generas under the parasitic amoeba
Entamoeba Enolimax Iodamoeba
49
All are found in the intestinal lumen except?
Entamoeba gingivitis
50
All other amoeba species are commensalism except?
Entameoba histolytica, pathogenic amoeba
51
All amoeba exist in two forms in the life cycle; trophozoite and cysts EXCEPT?
E. Gingivitis; occurs in trophozoite stage only
52
Two groups of amoebae are of medical importance:
1. Parasitic amoebae 2. Free living amoeba
53
Two species under pathogenic free living amoeba
1. Naegleria 2. Acanthamoeba
54
3 genera of parasitic amoeba
1. Entamoeba 2. Endolimax 3. Iodamoeba
