WHAT IS INGESTION - Ingestion is the process of taking in the food into the body either by swallowing or absorbing it.
Amoeba - Amoeba pushes out the pseudopodia to encircle the food and engulfs it forming a food vacuole. This process is known as phagocytosis.
Paramoecium - The paramecium is a unicellular protist that uses its cilia to pull food into its oral groove. Food particles are then digested via a process called phagocytosis.
Frog - The food is captured with the help of sticky tongue. During ingestion, mouth is opened and the tongue is released out to catch the prey which is then rapidly withdrawn into the buccal cavity and mouth is closed.
Spider - Spiders have a sucking stomach that is the main pump for drawing food into the body. Food is rapidly ingested due to the wavelike contractions of muscles that surround the stomach and of muscles that attach to the body wall.
