An amoeba gets energy in the same way that you do - from its food.
An amoeba feeds by sending out 'bulges' of its cytoplasm, called pseudopodia, to surround a small food particle eg a smaller protozoan or an alga. The food, together with a small drop of the water is taken into the cell to become a food vacuole. Enzymes are then added to the food vacuole to digest the food. The soluble products of digestion are taken into the cytoplasm and used for respiration or growth.
The release of energy from food is called respiration. Usually, the sugar called glucose is used by cells
A digestive vacuole in an amoeba functions to break down and digest food particles that have been engulfed by the cell. This process helps the amoeba obtain nutrients for energy and growth. Once digestion is complete, waste material is expelled from the cell.

Yes, both amoeba and euglena are single-celled organisms that can survive independently without each other. They obtain their nutrients and energy from their surroundings, so they do not require a symbiotic relationship to survive.

Amoebas obtain energy by engulfing food particles through a process called phagocytosis. Once the food particles are ingested, they are broken down and nutrients are absorbed into the cell to be used for energy production through cellular respiration.
Amoebas obtain oxygen through diffusion. Oxygen from the surrounding environment diffuses across their cell membrane and into their cytoplasm, where it is used for cellular respiration to generate energy.
Most amoeba do not have chloroplasts. However, recent studies show that amoeba can obtain choloroplasts from engulfing photosynthetic alga.

An amoeba
Amoeba has flexible cell membrane. It enables amoeba to engulf in food by the process called endocytosis.
Heterotrophs obtain energy from foods they consume, and Autotrophs obtain energy by the sun light
producers obtain energy from water and sunlight, consumers obtain energy from producers and decomposers obtain energy from comsumers.
