Answer 1

PARASITE	PRIMARY RESERVIOR	HOST	DISEASE CAUSING	HABITAT	OTHER IMPORTANT CHARACTERSTIC	REPRODUCTION IN HOST
Anopheles gambiae	Female mosquito	Human	plasmodium	high tempreature and humidity	Major cause of malaria disease in human beings.	Asexual
Ascaris lumbricoides	Soil	Human	Ascaris	Moist,warm,shaded soil	Causes ascariasis in human beings.	Sexual
Cimex lectularis	Warm house,bed	Human	Cimex lectularius	Hematophagous(feeds on blood)	it is dependent on human blood for development.	Reproduce outside host.
Dermacentor variabilis	Soil	Dogs and other animals	Francisella tularensis,Rickettsia rickettsii,Borellia burgdoferi	Woody,shrubby and long grasses	These are vector for many diseases causing members.	Reproduce outside host.
Dranuculus Medinensis	Copepoids	Human	Larvae	fresh water	Endoparasites	Sexual
Ixodes scapularis	Deer	Deer and other mammals	Borellia burgdorferi	feeds on mammals	vector for borellia	They feed on host externally.
Nector americanus	Soil	Human	Nector amwricanus	moist,warm and shaded environment	They are endoparasites.	Sexual
Schistosoma mansoni	Snails	Human	s.mansoni	water	They are endoparasites	Sexual
Taenia solium	Pork	Human	Taenia solium	soil,faeces	The eggs are excreted through feaces. These are endoparasites	They develop in human body.
Dermatobia hominis	Mosquito	Human and other primates	They do not cause disease.	Develop in subcutaneous layer	Endoparasites	they develop in subcutaneous layer.
