Solution

The correct option is A Liver of a man
The exoerythrocytic phase involves maturation and development of the parasite in the liver of man. When an infected mosquito transmits the infection or sporozoites as it takes in a blood meal the sporozoites in the mosquito's saliva enter the bloodstream and migrate to the liver.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
