Answer 1

Answer

Your answer is (b)

Answer 2

Fast distribution of nutrition within the body​ is advantageous for Amoeba

Explanation:

• Option D) Fast distribution of nutrition within the body is correct answer.
• When a food particle comes remotely close to the Amoeba, it develops pseudopodia, which are transient finger-like projections that circle the food particle and devour it.
• Food is processed in the food vacuole with the assistance of enzymes.
• Dissemination allows it to be absorbed into the cytoplasm of the amoeba.
• Option A) Capturing of food takes less time is incorrect answer.
• During ingestion, Amoeba forms pseudopodia, which are thumb projections that envelop the meals and shape a cavity called a food vacuole.
• Food is soaked up and absorbed after digestion, and undigested food is ejected from the body.
• Option B) Complex food can be digested easily is incorrect answer.
• In Amoeba, digestion is performed by phagocytosis, in which the whole meal is absorbed by the organism and subsequently digested within the body.
• Pseudopodia are used to carry out this procedure.
• Option C) More amount of food can be consumed is incorrect answer.
• It entails the consumption, digesting, and elimination of food. Amoebae do not have a dedicated nourishment organ.
• With the aid of pseudopodia, the entire process is carried out on the body.
