Solution

The correct option is A Plasmodium
  • In the Plasmodium life cycle, the Signet ring stage is the stage between the R.B.C and trophozoite.
  • Merozoite larva develops into a trophozoite, which grows by feeding on the hemoglobin of RBC.
  • A new vacuole forms in the center of the cytoplasm, which pushes the nucleus to one side giving the parasite a ring-like appearance called the signet ring.
  • So, the correct answer is "Plasmodium'.
