Answer:

PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST

Pseudopods are actually extensions of the cytoplasm, or the thick liquid that is inside organisms like amoeba. The organism can change the shape of the pseudopod, making it move, appear, and disappear.

The pseudopods are used in movement and as a tool to capture prey. In order to move using pseudopods, the organism pushes cytoplasm towards one end of the cell, which makes a projection, or pseudopod, off the cell. This projection holds the critter in place, and the rest of the cell can follow, thus moving the organism forward. For feeding, organisms extend their pseudopods, engulfing their prey and then digesting them using enzymes.
