Question

dwhat type of nutrition is shown in amoeba?what does its diet include

Answer 1

Nutrition in amoeba is Holozoic.

This means that the food particles are ingested which are then digested using enzymes.

Amoeba is an omnivore by nature.

It feeds on both plants and animals.

Its diet includes Bacteria, microscopic plants, minute algae, nematodes etc.

Since Amoeba is a unicellular organism, it doesn’t have any special organ for the nutrition process.

It takes place at the body structure using pseudopodia.

Answer 2

HEY MATE!!!

■ Amoeba takes in food using temporary finger like extension of the cell surface which fuse over the food particle forming a food vacuole.

■ Inside the food vacuole,complex substances are broken down into simpler ones which then diffuse into the cytoplasm.

■ The remaining undigested material is moved to the surface of the cell and thrown out.
