Explanation: MALT lines the mucosa of the respiratory, digestive and urogenital tracts and makes up about 50 percent of the lymphoid tissue in the human body.
The Plasmodium parasite needs both hosts: the female Anopheles mosquito injects sporozoites while biting (infecting the human liver and RBCs, causing the malaria fever cycle), then picks up gametocytes from an infected person's blood, completing the parasite's sexual stage inside the mosquito.
