DUBIELTEE H community lol is the area of biology concerned with the phenomenon of dependence of one living organism on another. Medical Parasitology concerned primarily with parasites that affect humans and their medical significance as well as their importance in human communities. Tropical medicine is a branch of medicine that deals with tropical diseases and other special medical problems of tropical regions. e g Philippines wet f dry A tropical disease is an illness that is indigenous to or endemic in a tropical area but may also occur in sporadic or epidemic proportions in areas that are not tropical. all parasites thatSIGNIFICANTLYaffectthe community Parasites egg intropical provenbystatistics 43 6months tropicalconditions NeglectedTropicalDiseases creates a favorable condition for parasites Biological Relationships Organisms may develop unique relationships due to their habitual and long associations with one another Symbiosis - living together of unlike organisms which might involve protection or other advantages to one or both organisms.

INTERMEDIATEHOST HOST t Nematoda female oftheocean paramakainng birddefinitivehost A person or an animal in which a parasite or commensal organism lives. Types of Host: whenthehostiscomplicated theparasitescandevelopmore p Definitive host: is one in which the parasite attains sexual maturity. Humans are considered as the definitive host. c pcannotsexuallymature Intermediate host: harbors the asexual or larval stage of the parasite. Animals can be an intermediate host. If there is more than one intermediate host, they can be classified as first, second intermediate host. rat eatsa parasiteegg becamelarva Paratenic host: is one in which the parasite does not develop further to later stages. However, the parasite remains alive and is able to infect another host. reservoir host: is one in which the life cycle of the parasite may continue and become additional sources of human infection. definitivehost Life cycle of Schistosoma japonicum parasite Reservoir host definitivehost Q servesasREs Program intervention for community Vaccination inteffMEPIATE VECTORS insect arthropod malaria parasite bacteria Plasmodiumsp responsible for transmitting the parasite from one host to another.

Environmental management: planning, organization, performance and monitoring of activities for the modification of environmental factors or their interaction with human beings with a view to preventing or minimizing vector or intermediate host propagation.
