Answer 2

✳$\bf\underline\red{Nutrition\:in\:Amoeba}$

▶Amoeba is a microscopic, unicellular, organism which feeds on small microscopic organisms. ▶When Amoeba comes in contact with food, it produces pseudopodia[false feet of amoeba] around the food particle.

▶As the cell membranes of the pseudopodia fuse the food gets trapped in a food vacuole. ▶Digestive juices are secreted into this vacuole.

▶The digested food is absorbed and used for production of energy, movement and maintainance of the organism.

▶The undigested food, present in the food vacuole, is expelled, from the Amoeba, by the process of the egestion.
