  1. The main factors determining the vectorial importance of mosquitoes in malaria transmission include density, lifespan, choice of host, resting habits, breeding habits, time of biting, vectorial capacity, and resistance to insecticides.
  2. Malaria can be transmitted through vector transmission by female Anopheles mosquitoes, direct transmission through blood transfusion, and congenital transmission from an infected mother.
