Objective: Describe the morphology, behaviors, and taxonomy of human-infective Plasmodium spp.

Which Plasmodium species is associated with the highest mortality?

A) Plasmodium vivax ✗

B) Plasmodium ovale

C) Plasmodium knowlesi

D) Plasmodium falciparum ✓

The correct answer is D. Plasmodium falciparum is the most virulent malaria parasite and responsible for the majority of severe cases and deaths in sub‑Saharan Africa, largely due to its capacity to cause cerebral malaria.

Objective: Describe how immunopathology can occur during an infection

What is immunopathology in the context of infectious disease?
