Amoeba

Amoeba Definition

An amoeba is a highly motile eukaryotic, unicellular organism. Typically belonging to the kingdom protozoa, it moves in an “amoeboid” fashion. As such, microbiologists often use the term “amoeboid”, to refer to a specific type of movement and amoebae interchangeably. Interestingly, amoebae are not a distinct taxonomic group and are, instead, characterized based on their “amoeboid” movement rather than distinct morphological characteristics. Moreover, even members of the same species can appear dissimilar. Amebae species can be found in all major eukaryotic lineages, including fungi, algae, and even animals.
