Apicomplexa Levine, 1970 è un subphylum di protozoi che comprende organismi endoparassiti, composti in gran parte da un'unica cellula, e dotati di strutture adatte a penetrare nelle cellule di altri esseri viventi e nutrirsene. Il loro nome deriva dal cosiddetto complesso apicale, una struttura cellulare fatta di fibrille ...
The Apicomplexa (also called Apicomplexia; single: apicomplexan) are organisms of a large phylum of mainly parasitic alveolates. Most possess a unique form of organelle structure that comprises a type of (non-photosynthetic) plastid called an apicoplast —with an apical complex membrane.
