Select the four statements about plasmodium that are true. view available hint(s) select the four statements about plasmodium that are true. plasmodium cells infect two specific types of cells in humans. the life cycle of plasmodium involves only haploid forms. plasmodium cells are transferred to humans through mosquito saliva. inside an infected mosquito, haploid gametes fuse, forming a haploid zygote that develops into an oocyst. when a mosquito bites a human with malaria, diploid plasmodium cells enter the mosquito. inside an infected mosquito, haploid gametes fuse, forming a diploid zygote that develops into an oocyst. the complete life cycle of plasmodium requires two hosts. submit

"1. it should be, it has been for about 20 years, and it's really not much different in the end than breeding animals to have particular traits. there are always concerns about genetically engineered animals/plants affecting the environment in unexpected negative ways, but i can't think of an example where the fears didn't turn out to be baseless.  

first, as you point out, it would be a great advance in pharmacology, to be able to tailor drugs and their doses to me. the pros involve better medical treatment. the cons involve privacy issues like insurance companies denying coverage to people with genetic risk factors. looking at dna markers wouldn't affect the frequency of genetic diseases, but it would allow detection of them earlier. and ok, actually i suppose that if people used this information to avoid having children with genetic diseases, some might decrease in frequency."
