Using a microscope, you observe an amoeba moving toward a food source. This is an example of responsiveness. Endocytosis produces a structure called a food vesicle.

How does an amoeba get food?

What is an amoeba's main food source?

they eat smaller organisms like bacteria


How do amoeba get food?

The amoeba moves its psuedopodia (false feet) around the food particle. thus a food vacuole is formed.then the amoeba secretes digestive enzymes into the food vacuole and the food particle is digested and assimilated.the waste particle is thrown out by moving the particle towards the surface of the body and it is excreted. :)

How do you describe how an amoeba feeds in your own words?

An amoeba feeds through a process called phagocytosis. Phagocytosis works by a cell engulfing its food source, puncturing the cell wall, and digests it in its food vacuole.


How does amoeba engulf solid food particles?

a amoeba engulfs it food by endocytosis


What does an amoeba form when it surrounds its food?

Certain chemical gradients began to form microtubule sub-units together that extend out on two places on the amoeba's membrane into what are called pseudopodia. These pseudopodia engulf the food and the ameoba pull itself toward the food rather than pulling the pseudopodia into the main body.

How does food storage and digestion take place in amoeba?

The digestion of food in Amoeba takes place in the food vacuole. :)


How does a amoeba use a food vacuole?

Enzymes move into the vacuole to digest food, and the digested food passes into the amoeba


What is the slowest protist?

The amoeba is the slowest protist because it's only way of moving is the shift it's cytoplasm into the pseudopods, which take a long time.
