Question

nutrition.in.amoeba
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The various steps involved in the process of nutrition are:

Ingestion: Amoeba ingests food with the help of its finger-like extensions, called pseudopodia. When a food particle approaches Amoeba, it forms pseudopodia around it and forms a food vacuole inside the Amoeba.

Digestion: Various enzymes from the cytoplasm enter into the food vacuole and break them down into simple soluble molecules.

Absorption: The simple soluble food is absorbed by cytoplasm of Amoeba from food vacuoles through the process of diffusion.

Assimilation: Amoeba cell obtains energy from the absorbed food through respiration. This energy is utilised by Amoeba for its growth and repair of the body.

Egestion: When a considerable amount of undigested food gets collected inside Amoeba, its cell membrane ruptures and throws out the undigested food.

Answer 2

Answer:here is your answer

Explanation:

Amoeba follows holozoic mode of nutrition in which the solid food particles are ingested which are then acted upon by enzymes and digested. ... Amoeba engulfs food by temporary finger-like projections of its body surface called pseudopodia. When a pseudopodium fuses with the food particle, it forms a food vacuole
