Chapter 4.8, Problem 1LO
Summary Introduction
To determine: The protein fibers of the cytoskeleton.
Introduction: The structure of the cell was first observed and analyzed by Robert Hooke. The cell structure is complicated machinery consisting of various intracellular structures called organelles and support structures called cytoskeletal elements. The nucleus is the organelle that controls and regulates all the activities taking place inside a cell.

A 25-year-old woman presents to the emergency department with a 2-day history of fever, chills, severe headache, and confusion. She recently returned from a trip to sub-Saharan Africa, where she did not take malaria prophylaxis. On examination, she is febrile (39.8°C/103.6°F) and hypotensive. Laboratory studies reveal hemoglobin of 8.0 g/dL, platelet count of 50,000/μL, and evidence of hemoglobinuria. A peripheral blood smear shows ring forms and banana-shaped gametocytes. Which of the following Plasmodium species is most likely responsible for her severe symptoms?
A.
Plasmodium vivax
B.
Plasmodium ovale
C.
Plasmodium malariae
D.
Plasmodium falciparum
