Question

Briefly describe the process of digestion in Amoeba with the help of labelled diagram.

Answer 1

Answer:

The process of obtaining food by Amoeba is called phagocytosis.

Ingestion: When a food particle is near the Amoeba, it forms temporary finger-like projections called pseudopodia around the food particle and engulfs it.

Digestion: The food is digested in the food vacuole with the help of enzymes.

Absorption: It is then absorbed in the cytoplasm of the Amoeba by diffusion.

Assimilation: The absorbed food provides energy and a part of nutrition is used for growth.

Egestion: The undigested and the waste food particles are thrown out.
