Animals that live on bacteria include paramecium and amoeba. Besides eating bacteria, these organisms can also exist on algae and dead plant and animal material.


Do germs eat?

If by "germs" you mean bacteria... yes. They can eat in a few different ways. Active transport, however, is probably the most common way. Active transport is the process by which the cell (the bacteria) grabs a molecule of glucose or other food and pulls it in through the cell wall.


How do substances get in and out of a cell if they are to big to pass through the cell membrane?

Do you mean how do substances move through a cell membrane if they are too big to transport by passive transport?If so, a cell uses active transport to move large particles in and out of a cell. Active transport includes endocytosis, pinocytosis, and phagocytosis.

What are passive transport active transport and endocytosis?

These are three different ways that cells have to get things in and out of the cell. Passive transport is movement without the use of energy, active transport requires energy.Active transport requires energy since the molecules are going toward a region that has a higher concentration of that molecule. The cell is 'stuffing' more into itself.Endocytosis means to 'take into the cell'. Usually this a larger molecule and cell must wrap part of itself around the molecule and then can bring it inside. This is a type of phagocytosis (cell eating).This requires energy as well.

What are some Real life examples of active transport?

Engulfing, protein transfer, and ill get back to y'all on the last one lol ^^^ Those aren't really examples of active transport, just names of characteristics of an active transport. Active transport is the movement of ions or molecules across a cell membrane into a region of higher concentration, assisted by enzymes and requiring energy. Endocytosis-A process in which a cell takes in materials from the outside by engulfing and fusing them with its plasma membrane. There are two types of endocytosis, called phagocytosis, which means cell-eating, and pinocytosis, which means cell-drinking. Sodium-Potassium Pump-Nerve cell membranes also contain carrier proteins that actively transport sodium ions out of the cell and potassiu ions into the cell.


Which kind of bulk transport do white blood cells use to engulf bacteria?

phagocytosis, otherwise known as "cell eating". The cell takes it in by squeezing it through the cell membrane and creating a vesicle
