Answer:

Nutrition in an Amoeba occurs through a process called phagocytosis where the entire organism pretty much engulfs the food it plans on eating up. The mode of nutrition in amoeba is known as holozoic nutrition. It involves the ingestion, digestion and egestion of food material.

Amoeba does not have any specialized organ for nutrition. Its entire process is carried through the body surface with the help of pseudopodia.

Holozoic nutrition in amoeba takes place in the following steps:

Ingestion

Digestion

Absorption

Assimilation

Egestion

\bigstar\huge\bf\underline{\underline{Answer:-}}

The mode of nutrition in Amoeba is called Holozoic nutrition.

The nutrition in amoeba takes place in the following steps:-

1. Ingestion

2. Digestion

3. Absorption

4. Assimilation

5. Egestion

\bigstar\huge\bf\underline{\underline{Explanation:-}}

1. Ingestion:-

The process of ingestion is nothing but intake of food into the body. Amoeba is unicellular and hence it does not have mouth, Amoeba takes the food into the body by forming structures called pseudopodia around the food particle. This pseudopodia forms a vacuole around the food particle called food vacuole and the vacuole is taken inside the cell.

2.Digestion:-

1The food particle inside the vacuole is broken down into soluble particles by digestive enzymes inside the vacuoles.

3. Absorption:-

The broken food particles is absorbed into the cytoplasm of amoeba by diffusion. The food particles which are unabsorbed are left inside the vacuole.

4. Assimilation:-

The absorbed food is converted into energy in this step.

5. Egestion:-

The undigested food in the food vacuole is thrown out from the cell
