Solution
Filaria
Filaria is a threadlike parasitic nematode worm that is spread by the biting of mosquitoes and causes filariasis and different diseases.
It is transmitted from individual to individual through mosquito bites.
When a mosquito bites lymphatic filariasis, worms present in human blood enter the mosquito and infect it.
When this mosquito bites other individuals then worms go into the lymph vessels of humans.
