Answer 2

Amoeba is a unicellular micro organism. Its nutrition process is as follows:-

• Amoeba takes in food using temporary finger like extension of the cell surface (pseudopodia) which fuse over the food particle forming a food vacuole.

• Inside the food vacuole,complex substances are broken down into simpler ones which then diffuse into the cytoplasm.

• The remaining undigested material is moved to the surface of the cell and thrown out using the contraction of pseudopodia.
