Meaning of "zoocyst" in English

A "zoocyst" refers to a cyst or a protective capsule that contains an animal cell or a small organism during its dormant stage. It acts as a protective barrier, often formed in response to harsh environmental conditions, allowing the organism inside to withstand unfavorable circumstances. Zoocysts are typically seen in various microorganisms, such as parasites, where they help in surviving outside the host's body until they reach a suitable environment for growth.
