dc.description.abstractParasites are organisms which obtain food at the expense of their hosts by consuming either host tissues and fluids, or the contents of the host intestine. The relationship of parasite to host therefore has a nutritional basis. There are two kinds of parasites, ectoparasites and endoparasites. Ectoparasites are organisms that live and feed on the exterior surface of their hosts, examples of these parasites are ticks, fleas, mites and so on. Endoparasites are organisms which penetrate a host, they are important organisms which cause diseases in man and animals, they are classified into the following categories: Protozoan parasites, unicellular aorganisms which multiply in the host, cause protozoal infections. Typical examples are malaria, trypanosomiasis, leishmaniais, amoebiasis and toxoplasmosis.en_US
