Solution
The correct option is B Golgi
The erythrocytic cycle of Plasmodium was first described by Camillo Golgi. Hence it is also called a Golgi cycle.
This cycle is initiated either by the cryptozoites of the pre-erythrocytic cycle or the micro-metacryptozoies of the exo-erythrocytic cycle. In fresh RBC, these stages assume the spherical shape and transform into trophozoites.
Hence the Erythrocytic cycle of Plasmodium was studied by 'Golgi'.
