With the help of a diagram explain the digestion in Amoeba
Answers
Explanation:
Amoeba has a sense of ability to accept food particles. When the food is found, it extends its pseudopodia. Pseudopodia just wrap around the food particle. ... With the help of digestive enzymes, the engulfed food is digested in the food vacuoles.

Explanation:
Amoeba is a microscopic single-celled
organism found in pond water. Amoeba
has a cell membrane, a rounded, dense
nucleus and many small bubble-like
vacuoles in its cytoplasm.
Amoeba constantly changes its shape
and position. It pushes out one, or
more finger-like projections, called
pseudopodia or false feet for movement
and capture of food.
Amoeba feeds on some microscopic
organisms. When it senses food, it
pushes out pseudopodia around the
food particle and engulfs it. The food
becomes trapped in a food vacuole.
Digestive juices are secreted into the
food vacuole. They act on the food and
break it down into simpler substances.
Gradually the digested food is absorbed.
The absorbed substances are used for
growth, maintenance and multiplication.
The undigested residue of the food is
expelled outside by the vacuole.
