the correct spelling for the disease malaria, which is transmitted through the bite of an infected female anopheles (marsh) mosquito, which is the vector. the process begins when an infected mosquito pierces the skin with its proboscis to obtain blood from the host. plasmodium sporozoites, the mosquito‐transmitted forms of the malaria parasite, contracted from other humans, or sometimes animals, are transferred from the mosquito's body into the bloodstream of the victim, resulting in the disease being spread.
