Apicomplexa

Apicomplexa Websites

Members of the kingdom Apicomplexa are parasitic protists responsible for many animal and human diseases. Many of them have complex life cycles involving more than one host and include Babesia, Coccidia, Eimeria, Toxoplasma and Plasmodium. They are able to reproduce by producing a burst of spores.- Category ID : 422581
