a) Intercellular b) Intracellular c) Extracellular d) All of the above

Answer 1

Answer:

Amoeba is unicellular

Digestion in amoeba is said to be intracellular because amoeba is a single celled organism, so the digestion takes place inside the cell. It obtains its nutrition in a heterotrophic mode. Amoeba can form pseudopodia. It engulfs the food with its pseudopodia. When the food enters its body, the amoeba forms a food vacuole around it which contains certain enzymes to digest the food.

Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
