a amoeba engulfs it food by endocytosis
Phagocytosis...
Amoeba
They use it to engulf or surround their food
Endocytosis helps an organism like amoeba by allowing it to ingest food particles and other substances from the external environment. Amoebas use a process called phagocytosis to surround and engulf these particles into a membrane-bound vesicle called a food vacuole. The content of the food vacuole is then digested to provide nutrients and energy for the amoeba's survival and growth.
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. :)
Amoebas use cytoplasmic streaming to trap food particles and move. Cytoplasmic streaming is caused by microfilament movement in the cytoskeleton of an amoeba. The cytoplasmic streaming allows the amoeba to surround its food particles. The arm like projects that seem to come out of the amoeba are called pseduopodia. When the cytoplasm completely surrounds the food particles it forms a vacuole around them. The pseduopodia also allow the amoeba to move.
Amoeba has flexible cell membrane. It enables amoeba to engulf in food by the process called endocytosis.

They engulf their food. The amoeba's body wraps around the food and it is ingested, then digested.

The most obvious difference between an amoeba and a paramecium or euglena is that the amoeba has no overall shape, and the entire cell changes its shape as the amoeba moves. The paramecium and the euglena both have definite shapes which they do not alter. The amoeba can engulf food particles at any point on its own cell membrane, but the paramedium has an oral groove which is where it ingests food particles. And the euglena also has a chloroplast, unlike the other two (or any other protozoan).
active transportAmoeba gets the food through the process of endocytosis.it can engulf the food particle from every side of its body(cell) surface by making psuedopodia when it comes in contact with the food particle.
They surround the food and engulf it. If you push a cherry into jello, that would be somewhat like it.
An amoeba ingests large food particles by the process of endocytosis.
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. :)
Amoeba and many other creatures of the sort release their waste through the contractile vacuole . Amoeba have little feet, called pseudopod. When they eats, They engulf the food. It is then digested in the food vacuole, and released through the contractile vacuole.
