Solution
The correct option is D All of the above
After penetrating liver cells, each sporozoite becomes rounded and reproduces by multiple fission to produce schizont that ruptures and releases thousands of cryptozoites, which penetrate the healthy liver cells again to from schizonts. The secondary cryptozoites are called metacryptozoites or metacryptomerozoites.
After entering the blood stream, the parasite invades RBCs and start erythrocytic schizogony. Inside RBC, the metacryptozoite modifies into a young trophozoite or nourishing stage.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D), 'All of the above'.
