Question

explain the process of nutrition in amoeba.

Answer 1

The mode of nutrition in Amoeba is holozoic. The various steps involved in the process of nutrition are: Ingestion:Amoeba ingests food with the help of its finger-like extensions, called pseudopodia. When a food particle approaches Amoeba, it forms pseudopodia around it and forms a food vacuole inside the Amoeba.

Answer 2

amoeba takes nutrients via phagocytosis and phagocytosis is what occurs when an amoeba surrounds a solid food particle with its pseudopods to form a vacuole ( known as a phagosome) in which digestion of the food particle then occurs.
