food vacuole is a small cavity in the cytoplasm that temporarily store food.
the food is stored in the the vacuole in the amoeba where it is digested and the nutrients are absorbed and the waste product is excreted form the pseudopodia.
It is the start of many different food webs ending up to many different animals
Pseudopods are flowing extensions of the amoeba's cytoplasm, which the amoeba use to move around. They do this by stick a part of their cytoplasm outward to an open area, then the part will pull the rest of the amoeba toward it.
Amoeba obtains its nutrition in a heterotrophic mode. Both the anabolic and catabolic functions are carried out in the same cell. Amoeba feeds on plankton and diatoms present in water. It can form arm- like structures called pseudopodia, extending from any part of its body as it is shapeless. When it senses food in its surroundings it extends its pseudopodia in that direction and moves towards it. then it engulfs the food with its pseudopodia. When the food enters its body the amoeba forms a food vacuole around it which contains certain enzymes to digest the food. When the food is digested the unwanted waste is released through its body surface.
a granular inner mass called the endoplasm. The endoplasm contains the cell nucleus, which controls the amoeba's life processes. In most species, the endoplasm also contains a water bubble, called the contractile vacuole, that regulates the amoeba's water content. Within the endoplasm there are also bits of food enclosed in food vacuoles.
Why is the amoeba considered an outgroup in this cladogram?

Cell Membrane The amoeba uses its cell membrane to form an arm-like structure (pseudopodia) to encircle food with its "arms" and engulfs it. Check the videos on youtube!

The psuedopod is used to help the amoeba move, and also to eat. It is a part of the amoeba's body that it can stretch out and pull itself with.

Difussion takes place in amoeba to transport nutrients to every part of amoeba.
are protozoa and amoeba the same
the tan fur
according to me the only difference between amoeba and humans is that , that amoeba is a unicellular organism whereas human are multi-cellular organisms ..............hope you like the answer.......... :D
