merozoite
Apicomplexans, a group of intracellular parasites, have life cycle stages that allow them to survive the wide variety of environments they are exposed to during their complex life cycle. Each stage in the life cycle of an apicomplexan organism is typified by a cellular variety with a distinct morphology and biochemistry. Not all apicomplexa develop all the following cellular varieties and division methods. This presentation is intended as an outline of a hypothetical generalised apicomplexan organism.

merozoite
A merozoite is a stage in the life cycle of certain parasites, such as those belonging to the phylum Apicomplexa which includes the malaria-causing Plasmodium species. It is a non-motile, single-cell form that arises from the asexual replication of the parasite within a host cell and is capable of invading other cells, thereby spreading the infection.
