Best Answer

malaria is transmitted by female mosquitoes typically in Africa and surrounding countries. The female mosquitoes only want blood for their young, like any other female mosquito, but their particular species contains a chemical called Plasmodium phalsiparum which makes them deadly. The female mosquito lands on human skin, and removes blood. In this process, the mosquito's saliva contaminates the human host's blood stream with Plasmodium phalsiparum. The chemical then causes malaria in the human host.
