Solution

The correct option is B Trophozoite
The young trophozoite is often called the ring form due to its morphology in Giemsa-stained blood smears. During the trophic period, the parasite ingests the host cytoplasm and breaks down the haemoglobin into amino acids.
So, the correct answer is option D.
