Asexual reproduction

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that does not involve the fusion of gametes or change in the number of chromosomes.

See Merosome and Asexual reproduction

Genus

Genus (genera) is a taxonomic rank above species and below family as used in the biological classification of living and fossil organisms as well as viruses.

See Merosome and Genus

Hepatocyte

A hepatocyte is a cell of the main parenchymal tissue of the liver.

See Merosome and Hepatocyte

Immunity (medicine)

In biology, immunity is the state of being insusceptible or resistant to a noxious agent or process, especially a pathogen or infectious disease.

See Merosome and Immunity (medicine)

Kupffer cell

Kupffer cells, also known as stellate macrophages and Kupffer–Browicz cells, are specialized cells localized in the liver within the lumen of the liver sinusoids and are adhesive to their endothelial cells which make up the blood vessel walls.

See Merosome and Kupffer cell

Malaria

Malaria is a mosquito-borne infectious disease that affects vertebrates.

See Merosome and Malaria

Membrane

A membrane is a selective barrier; it allows some things to pass through but stops others.

See Merosome and Membrane

Parasitism

Parasitism is a close relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or inside another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life.

See Merosome and Parasitism

Plasmodium

Plasmodium is a genus of unicellular eukaryotes that are obligate parasites of vertebrates and insects. Merosome and Plasmodium are Malaria.

See Merosome and Plasmodium

Red blood cell

Red blood cells (RBCs), referred to as erythrocytes (with -cyte translated as 'cell' in modern usage) in academia and medical publishing, also known as red cells, erythroid cells, and rarely haematids, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen to the body tissues—via blood flow through the circulatory system.
