Ingestion : When an Amoeba senses a food particle, it encircles the particle by forming two pseudopodia around it. When the food particle is completely and encircled, it is engulfed in the form of a vacuole called food vacuole

Digestion : Digestive juices are secreted by the cell to break the food particle present inside the food vacuole into simple molecules.

Absorption : The simple molecules formed after digestion of food is absorbed in the cytoplasm.The undigested food particles remains in the food vacuole.

Assimilation : Amoeba uses the simple molecules which are formed as a result of digestion

Egestion : The undigested portion of the food stored in the food vacuole is removed from the body by rupturing the cell membrane
