Amoeba is a unicellular omnivore organism that does not possess specialised organs for the process of Nutrition. The mode of nutrition in Amoeba is holozoic and takes place with the help of pseudopodia ( finger like projection) .
It engulfs the food when it comes in contact with it cell surface by ingestion. Pseudopodia fuses over the food particle to form a food vacuole.

Digestion in Amoeba is intracellular in nature. Inside the food vacuole complex food breaks into small soluble molecules readily absorbed by the cytoplasm. This process is called absorption.

The absorbed food is further assimilated by Amoeba to derive energy from growth.

The undigested food material is removed by the cell membrane, which ruptures suddenly at any place and eliminates out the undigested food. This process of trying out undigested food is called egestion.
