Little Journeys In Science On Parasites and Parasitism
An overview defines an animal parasite as one that lives in or on another organism. Parasites span protozoa crustaceans and worms with protozoa causing malaria and sleeping sickness while arthropods spread infections by biting insects. Parasitism drives organ degeneration and growth of specialized structures in parasites, while hosts suffer reduced organs and increased vulnerability to transmission. In temperate zones bacterial diseases predominate, but tropical regions face pervasive parasitic disease such as malaria and hookworm infections.
