explain with the help of neat and we'll labelled diagram different steps unvalved in the nutrition in amoeba
Answers
Explanation:
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. Complex substances are broken down into simple substances inside the food vacuole. These simple substances are then diffused into the cytoplasm.

Answer:
Following are the steps involved in the nutrition in Amoeba:
(i) Ingestion: Amoeba ingests food along with a little amount of the surrounding water. It does this using its pseudopodia and forms a food vacuole.
(ii) Digestion: The food in the food vacuole is digested by the digestive enzymes that enter from the cytoplasm.
(iii) Absorption: The digested food is directly absorbed in the cytoplasm of the Amoeba cell by diffusion.
(iv) Assimilation: Some part of the digested food is used for acquiring energy for various life processes. This is done through respiration.
(v) Egestion: The undigested food is thrown out of the body through the cell membrane.
