Answer:

Explanation:

Amoeba shows the holozoic nutrition. It means that the Amoeba consumes the whole food through the endocytosis and digests the food inside the cell within the food vacuole. The digestion process can be describes as :

1. Ingestion- Amoeba moves towards the food by making pseudopodia. The pseudopodia surround the food particle and fuse to form the food vacuole, which is then taken inside the cytoplasm.  

2. Digestion- The food vacuole is combined with lysosomes that contain the hydrolytic enzymes. These enzymes perform the breakdown of food particles.

3. Absorption- The digested food is then absorbed directly into the cytoplasm from where it will be distributed to the different organelles.

4. Assimilation- The absorbed food is used for the generation of energy. The excess amount is stored in the form of glycogen and lipids in the cytoplasm.

5. Excretion- The undigested food in the food vacuole is excreted out of the cell as the food vacuole fuses with the cell membrane and perform exocytosis.

hiiii

here is your answer.

Ingestion:-Ingestion is the consumption of a substance by an organism. In animals, it normally is accomplished by taking in a substance through the mouth into the gastrointestinal tract; such as through eating or drinking. In single-celled organisms ingestion takes place by absorbing a substance through the cell membrane.

Digestion:-Digestion is the breakdown of large insoluble food molecules into small water-soluble food molecules so that they can be absorbed into the watery blood plasma. In certain organisms, these smaller substances are absorbed through the small intestine into the blood stream.

Absorption:-In chemistry, absorption is a physical or chemical phenomenon or a process in which atoms, molecules or ions enter some bulk phase – liquid or solid material. This is a different process from adsorption, since molecules undergoing absorption are taken up by the volume, not by the surface.

Excreation:-Excretion is a process by which metabolic waste is eliminated from an organism. In vertebrates this is primarily carried out by the lungs, kidneys and skin. This is in contrast with secretion, where the substance may have specific tasks after leaving the cell. Excretion is an essential process in all forms of life.

hope it help you.
