Answer» Explanation:Entamoeba histolytica is an anaerobic parasitic amoebozoan, part of the genus Entamoeba.[1] Predominantly infecting humans and other primates causing amoebiasis, E. histolytica is ESTIMATED to INFECT about 35-50 million people worldwide.[1] E. histolytica infection is estimated to kill more than 55,000 people each year.[2] Previously, it was thought that 10% of the WORLD population was infected, but these figures predate the recognition that at least 90% of these infections were DUE to a second species, E. dispar.[3] Mammals such as dogs and cats can become infected transiently, but are not thought to contribute significantly to transmission. The word histolysis literally means disintegration and dissolution of organic tissues. |
