Answer:

Amoeba consumes food with the help of pseudopodia . Pseudopodia are temporary finger-like projections of the cell surface, which fuse over the food particle. ... It is inside this food vacuole that complex substances are broken down into simpler ones. These are then diffused into the cell cytoplasm.S

Heyyyy mate........

steps involved in the nutrition in Amoeba  includes : ---

  • Ingestion : amoeba ingests food along with a little amount of the surrounding water. It does this using it's pseudopodia and forms a food vacoule.

  • Digestion : The food in the food vacoule is digested by the digestive enzymes that enter from the cytoplasm.

  • absorption : The digested food is directly absorbed in the cytoplasm of the amoeba cell by Diffusion.

  • Assimilation : some part of the digested food is used for acquiring energy for various life processes. this is done through respiration.

  • Egestion : The undigested food is thrown out of the body through the cell membrane..

An Amoeba has a hologic mode of nutrition.
