This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: LAB 20 - PARASITOLOGY, Entamoeba histolytica diagnosis look for cysts of E. histolytica in a fecal smear, Enterobius vermicularis diagnosis look for pinworm ova from the perianal region, Giardia lamblia disease giardiasis, ciliophora: Cilia are used for motility and direction of food particles into the mouth or cytosome. diagnosis look for B. coli in a fecal smear, protozoans groups sarcomastigophora, Entamoeba histolytica disease amoebic dysentery, protozoans asexual reproduction budding: Pinching off of a bud from a parent cell., ciliophora: Cilia are used for motility and direction of food particles into the mouth or cytosome. organism Balantidium coli, Trichinella spiralis diagnosis serological tests and microscopic examination of biopsy specimens, Plasmodium species disease malaria, Plasmodium species diagnosis look for the parasite within infected red blood cells (schizonts), Enterobius vermicularis transmission inhaling E. vermicularis ova or from transfer of ova to the mouth from fecally-contaminated fingers, sarcomastigophora subdivisions sarconina (amoebas): Move by extending lobelike projections of their cytoplasm called pseudopodia. Food is obtained by phagocytosis., apicomplexans: Are not motile in their mature forms; reproduce both asexually and sexually. organism Plasmodium species, helminths description Multicellular, often macroscopic worms having both rudimentary organs and organ systems., Plasmodium species transmission bite of an infected female Anopheles mosquito, trematodes (flukes) transmission ingesting poorly cooked fish, crayfish, crabs, snails, or water vegetables infested with flukes - except for blood flukes which directly penetrate the skin, Giardia lamblia diagnosis look for cysts of G. lamblia in a fecal smear, cestodes (tapeworms) transmission eating poorly cooked infected beef, pork, or fish containing encysted larva, protozoans description Unicellular eukaryotic microorganisms belonging to the Kingdom Protista.
