how food is ingested in hydra
Answers
Answer:
Food is ingested in hydra through a process know as phagocytosis. This process comes under endocytosis. First the hydra extends its psuedopodia and then it surround the psuedopodia around its prey. Then it fuses its plasme membrane annd creates a food vaccuole. Then the lysosomes come and fuse with the vaccuole and release digestive enzymes to digest the food. Then exocytosus occurs.

Hydra capture their food by paralyzing and killing the food organism by means of nematocysts, which are discharged into the prey. The prey is brought to the mouth (proctostome) by the tentacles, a response that is induced glutathione. ... The organism is then taken in through the mouth, which is star-shaped or circular.
