How does amoeba engulf solid food particles?
a amoeba engulfs it food by endocytosis
What protist changes shape constantly and flows around its food to engulf it?
Amoeba
What function do pseudopodia have for an amoeba?
They use it to engulf or surround their food
How do amoeba get their 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 amoeba obtain its food?
They engulf there food by the process of phagocytosis or picnocytosis. The large food material first broken down by ameoba as it secreate some extracellular enzyme then that food material is taken by amoeaba as amoeba form pseudopodia around the food material and then take it inside the cell.

How does amoeba obtain it food?
Amoeba has flexible cell membrane. It enables amoeba to engulf in food by the process called endocytosis.

Amoeba

How do amebas eat?
They engulf their food. The amoeba's body wraps around the food and it is ingested, then digested.
How does the amoeba obtain food?
They surround the food and engulf it. If you push a cherry into jello, that would be somewhat like it.

How does amoeba gets rid of its waste?
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.

How does the amoeba takes in and digests food?
amoeba feeds on some microscopic organisms when it senses food particle it pushes out and engulf it. The food becomes trapped in its food vacuole. Digestive juices are secreted into the food vacuole.They act on the food and break it into simpler substances gradually the digested food is absorbed. The substances are used for growth maintenance and multiplication of amoeba. The undigested substances of food is expelled outside by the vacuole.
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.
