explain the process of amoeba
Answers
Amoeba ingests the food by encircling it by forming pseudopodia. When the food is completely encircled , the food is engulfed in the form of a bag called food vacuole. Digestion is the process of breaking the large and insoluble molecules in small and water soluble molecules.
..Heya dear mate.
Amoeba can constantly change its shape. It forms finger-like projections called pseudopodia (meaning false feet). around its prey and engulfs it. The food thus eaten gets trapped in the food vacuole. An Amoeba feeds on algae, rotifiers, protozoans, and even other small Amoeba. Digestive juices are secreted inside the food vacuole in an Amoeba. Theses juices act on the food and break it down into smaller components. The digested food is later absorbed by the Amoeba for growth, maintenance, and multiplication. The waste material or undigested food is later absorbed by the Amoeba for growth, maintenance, and multiplication. The waste material or undigested food is then expelled out of the body.
