Linking paragraphs together The malaria mosquito, Anopheles gambiae, is an accessory to the deaths of about one million humans every year. To acquire nutrients for their offspring, female mosquitoes feed on human blood. While sucking their victim’s blood using contaminated, needle-like mouth parts, these mosquitoes unwittingly transmit the malaria-causing parasite that threatens half of the world’s population. Globally, the number of people who get malaria each year is greater than the population of the United States. It is unclear how the perpetrators of these crimes find their victims, but it is known that human-derived odorants have a key role — for example, female mosquitoes find the odour of patients with malaria particularly attractive.
