• Amoeba follows holozoic mode of nutrition in which the solid food particles are ingested which are then acted upon by enzymes and digested. ... Amoeba engulfs food by temporary finger-like projections of its body surface called pseudopodia. When a pseudopodium fuses with the food particle, it forms a food vacuole.

• Holozoic nutrition is a method of nutrition that involves the ingestion of liquid or solid organic material, digestion, absorption and assimilation of it to utilize it. It includes taking in the complex substances and converting them into simpler forms. Example, proteins can be broken into amino acids.
