A definite quantity of Plasmodium, or the Plasmodium of given individual organisms. noun

The naked multinucleated mass of protoplasm, exhibiting amœboid movement, which makes up the entire plant-body of the slime-molds (Myxomycetes) during the vegetative period of their existence. See Myxomycetes, slime-mold, Fuligo, 2, and Olpidium noun

A jellylike mass of free protoplasm, without any union of amœboid cells, and endowed with life and power of motion. noun

A naked mobile mass of protoplasm, formed by the union of several amœbalike young, and constituting one of the stages in the life cycle of Mycetozoa and other low organisms. noun

Multinucleate sheet of cytoplasm characteristic of some stages of such organisms as slime molds noun

Parasitic protozoan of the genus Plasmodium that causes malaria in humans noun
