They have hetrotrophic mode of nutrition.Amoebas are heterotrophs, like ourselves, meaning they eat other organisms. They generally do this by "engulfing" or swarming around their prey until the prey is inside them. The food vacuole is actually bound by what was once cell membrane. They dump some digestive enzymes into this food vacuole (from an organelle called a "lysosome") and once the food is digested (broken down into smaller units), they absorb the digested food into their cytoplasm. I love the name of this process: phagocytosis.
