Answer:
The above picture might be helpful. Though I haven't drawn it myself, I think it's the correct diagram.
Amoeba is a unicellular organism that follows holozoic mode of nutrition. The process of obtaining food by Amoeba is called phagocytosis.
1. Injestion: Amoeba ingests food particle by forming temporary finger like projections called pseudopodia around it. The food is engulfed forming a food vacuole.
2. In the food vacuole, complex substances are broken down into simpler substances by digestive enzymes.
3. Absorption: The digested food present in the food vacuole diffuse into the cytoplasm. After this the food vacuole disappears.
4. Assimilation: Food absorbed is used by Amoeba for various processes.
5. Egestion: The remaining undigested material moves to the surface of the cell.
The cell membrane ruptures at any place and the undigested food is thrown out of the body.
