OpenMalaria function modelling the effect of age on number of mosquito bites received. Shown is the ratio of bites received to those received by an adult \((A(a(i,t))/A_{max}(t)\) by age a(i, t). The continuous line corresponds to proportionality between bites received and expected body surface area. The dotted line shows a similar model which assumes proportionality between bites received and body weight.
