Investigating Protists: Animal-like Protists

The video tutorial explores various types of animal-like protists, known as protozoans. It covers amoebas in the Phylum Sarcadina, highlighting their shape, movement, and reproduction. The tutorial also discusses ciliates like paramecium, focusing on their cilia and unique nuclei. Zoa flagellates are examined for their movement and potential harm, including diseases like African Sleeping Sickness. Lastly, spora zones are described as nonmodal and parasitic, with a focus on Plasmodium, the cause of malaria, transmitted by mosquitoes.

Explain the significance of the parasite Plasmodium in relation to malaria.
