Answer 2

Answer:

Excess of water is removed through food vacuole is not true about the amoeba.

Explanation:

• Endocytosis is the process by which an amoeba consumes its food.
• The food vacuole digests it. Contractile vacuoles transport wastes and excess water outside the cell.
• Amoeba digestion occurs intracellularly, within the cell. Food is retained in a food vacuole or gastric vacuole formed by the cell membrane and a small amount of cytoplasm. Cytoplasmic movements transport vacuoles deeper into the cells. They combine with lysosomes, which contain enzymes, at this point. Amylase and proteinase are two enzymes that have been identified. Amoeba can thus digest sugars, cellulose, and proteins. However, fats go undigested.
