An amoeba eats tiny
plants and animals present in pond water where it lives. An amoeba takes
in food by extending arm-like structures called pseudopodia from any
part of its body, since it is shapeless.When a food particle comes near the amoeba, then the amoeba produces two pseudopodia around the food particle and surrounds it.The
two pseudopodia then join around the food particle and trap it in a
food vacuole with a little water. The food vacuole contains digestive
enzymes which break down the food into nutrients and undigested waste.The
nutrients from the food are directly absorbed by the body of the
amoeba, the cytoplasm. The undigested wastes are simply thrown out of
the body through a rupture anywhere in the cell wall.
