"Amoeba is a single celled organism with shape which is forever changing. Amoeba changes its shape by extending its false feet i.e. pseudopodia to catch its prey.
Amoeba, when trying to engulf an escaping prey, extends its cytoplasm to catch its prey with the help of its pseudopodia.
Thus if an amoeba proteus would not have false feet, it may have been wiped off from the surface of earth.

" Pseudopodia "
It follows there as,
Amoeba engulfs tiny particles of food with the help of its false feet called Pseudopodia. This process is called circumvallation. The Pseudopodia close to form a small cavity called food vacuole. Here the enzymes help the breakdown of food into simpler and soluble molecules. This then get absorbed and assimilated and residue is thrown out through the contractile vacuole, as Amoeba has no anus. so it can excrete from any part .
