The correct answer is:
C

In malaria, malarial parasites initially multiply within the liver cells and then attack the red blood cells (RBCs) resulting in their rupture. The rupture of RBCs is associated with release of a toxic substance, haemozoin, which is responsible for the chills and high fever recurring every three to four days.
