Protozoan Cyst is a defense mechanism in the Protozoan family. It takes this form according to the conditions of the host. A change in pH, a change in oxygen supplies, anything that trigers the genetic mechanism. The cyst is evacuated trough the sediment.

You could say that Cyst are a defense mechanism. It can last days in the outside and the final intention is to get into another host.

This is not a infectious form of Protozoan, but it is a transmition form.
