BY NIKOLAI HURTADO

Parasites from the mosquitos affect the blood stream and they ride the blood stream to the liver.
Describe how the body system works when it is working normally and then explain how this body system is affected by your chosen condition or disease process. For example: lungs normally work this way but with lung cancer....this happens.
blood keeps your activated but if you have malaria it kills cells and destroys everything
Target population: Who is affected? Give details about the following: Gender (male or female or either?) Age (infants, children, young adults, older adults or no age designations) Ethnicity (is this condition specific to a certain race?)
