Question

Name the locomotory organ of an Amoeba.

Answer 1

Pseudopodia are the locomotory organ of an amoeba. Pseudopodia are cytoplasm which is projected irregularly.

The meaning of the word pseudopodia is false feet. The shape of these pseudopodia can be easily modified by the amoeba so that they can move in any direction they want.

The projection usually holds any prey, and the remaining part of the cell follows. Then they engulf and with the aid of enzymes, digest the prey.
