|q1=True or False: Both trans-stadial and trans-ovarian transmission can occur in ''Babesia'' species
|a1=True
|l1=Babesia
|q2=What are the recognisable features of small ''Babesia'' species and give an example
|a2=
*Peripheral nucleus
*Obtuse angle
*B. divergens
|l2=Babesia
|q3=What are the recognisable features of large ''Babesia'' species and give an example
|a3=
*Central nucleus
*Acute angle
*B. major
|l3=Babesia
|q4=What are the predisposing features to ''Babesia'' infection?
|a4=
*Susceptible animals introduced into an infected area
*Infected ticks introduced into a clean area
*Infected cattle introduced into an area with clean ticks
*Temporary reduction in the tick population decreasing the transmission rate (causing enzootic instability)
*Infected are transported or stressed in other ways, e.g. parturition
|l4=Babesia
|q5=What are the different vectors for ''Babesia'' species?
|a5=
*Ixodes ricinus for B. divergens
*Haemaphysalis for B. major
*Boophilus for B. bovis and B. bigemina
*Dermacentor and Rhipicephalus for B. canis
|l5=Babesia
|q6=What species are the natural vectors for ''Cytauxzoon''?
|a6=Ticks
|l6=Cytauxzoon
|q7=Where do schizonts of ''Cytauxzoon felis'' develop?
|a7=In macrophages
|l7=Cytauxzoon
|q8=What is the main condition caused by ''Theileria parva''?
|a8=East Coast Fever
|l8=Theileria
|q9=What is the main condition caused by ''Theileria parva'' and what is the intermediate host?
|a9=
*East Coast Fever
*Rhipicephalus appendiculatus
|l9=Theileria
|q10=What is the pathogenesis of ''Theileria parva'' infections?
|a10=
*Proliferation in the lymphoblasts
*Proliferation in the local lymph node followed by spread throughout the body
*Lymphocyte depletion
|l10=Theileria
|q11=What are the clinical signs of ''Theileria parva'' infection?
|a11=
*Pyrexia
*Enlarged local lymph node
*Loss of condition
|l11=Theileria
