The dreaded mosquito Part 2 (Teacher: Michael)
The adult is eventually fully formed after going through
Select
that
an
a
this
the
pupal stage, with
Select
that
an
a
this
the
males usually emerging earlier. These stay hovering over
Select
that
an
a
this
the
surface of
Select
that
an
a
this
the
water, mating taking pace soon afterwards as
Select
that
an
a
this
the
females emerge. However, before she can lay viable eggs she will need to take
Select
that
an
a
this
the
blood meal from
Select
that
an
a
this
the
mammal or bird.
Mosquitoes are attracted to
Select
that
an
a
this
the
host by
Select
that
an
a
this
the
number of stimuli, particularly heat and exhaled carbon dioxide.
Having found
Select
that
an
a
this
the
host she will settle and probe with her proboscis (piercing- organ) to locate
Select
that
an
a
this
the
blood vessel, whereupon she will typically inject
Select
that
an
a
this
the
small amount of anticoagulant saliva into
Select
that
an
a
this
the
bite puncture to prevent
Select
that
an
a
this
the
blood from clotting. It is
Select
that
an
a
this
the
reaction of
Select
that
an
a
this
the
host's antibodies to
Select
that
an
a
this
the
attack which causes
Select
that
an
a
this
the
redness, swelling and irritation at
Select
that
an
a
this
the
site of
Select
that
an
a
this
the
bite. In
Select
that
an
a
this
the
tropics
Select
that
an
a
this
the
female mosquito is without doubt
Select
that
an
a
this
the
most important vector of disease, carrying malaria, filariasis, yellow fever, dengue fever and forms of encephalitis.
A number of these virus diseases can also occur in
Select
that
an
a
this
the
cooler, temperate zones like Malta's, but in our case we are less at risk since we live on
Select
that
an
a
this
the
island. It is only through their bloodsucking habits
Select
that
an
a
this
the
disease can be spread by mosquitoes.
