Ameoba takes in food using temporary feet i.e. Pseudopodia.
Amoeba obtains its food through its false feet.
Amoeba takes food from hetrotrophic mode of nutritient .amoeba increases its pseudopodia around its food and take inside its body and a food vacule break down food and intake gulcose and excreat
Amoeba intakes food with the help of pseudopodia. Pseudopodia are the false feet of the Amoeba or it is an extention of its cell wall which helps it to engulf the food.
Amoeba obtains its nutrition in a heterotrophic mode. 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.\xa0
