its false feet (pseudopods) encircles the food and the membrane in contact dissolves to form a food vacuole. then the food is ejested through the contractile vacuole.
ameobas are pseudopods
Amoebae and paramecia
No, Amoebae is not bacteria.
Some amoebae can cause serious illness if they get into the human body.
plantsAmoebas eat bacteria, algae and other protozoa.
I can positively identify sixteen types of amoebae on this specimen plate.
No, amoebae must take in oxygen to metabolize the food they ingest, just like you they are eukaryote and use oxidative phosphorilation to generate ATP. They bring in the oxygen diffusely across their cell membranes. They are aerobic organisms.
Yes
Foraminiferans and radiolarians are distinguished by their unique, intricate shells made of calcium carbonate (foraminiferans) or silica (radiolarians). These structures serve as protective coverings and help with buoyancy and capturing food, setting them apart from other amoebae that lack such specialized structures. Additionally, foraminiferans and radiolarians are marine organisms found in ocean environments, unlike many other amoebae that inhabit terrestrial or freshwater habitats.
neither. its a protist
Amoebae are heterotrophic.
