Giardiasis, malaria, and toxoplasmosis are all diseases caused by protozoa. Trichinellosis is caused by a parasitic worm. Amebiasis is caused by a protozoan, but plague is caused by a bacterium. Schistosomiasis is caused by a parasitic worm, and primary amebic meningoencephalitis is caused by an amoeba, not a protozoan. Dengue fever is caused by a virus, not a protozoan.
