Examples
More than two spores, generally very many, are produced typically by each individual trophozoite.
The trophozoite produces numerous pansporoblasts, each of which gives rise to many spores.
When fully grown, the trophozoite (now a schizont) undergoes schizogony.
The trophozoite is now large and full-grown, and has become rounded and ready for schizogony.
