Surrounding the food with pseudopod.

Hamburger
a amoeba engulfs it food by endocytosis
The process is phagocytosis .
when amoeba comes in touch in a food particle it spreads it's cup shaped pseudopodia around the food particle and engulfs it to it's cytoplasm

yes
Endocytosis
metaphor sis
Cell Membrane The amoeba uses its cell membrane to form an arm-like structure (pseudopodia) to encircle food with its "arms" and engulfs it. Check the videos on youtube!
YES. "Pseudopod" means "fake feet". It is an extension of the amoeba's cell membrane and cytoplasm that not only moves the amoeba, but also encircles and engulfs food and liquid.
Two pseudopodia are extended with microtubular action and surround the food particle. Instead of reeling the particle in the amoeba pulls itself up to the particle and then it is ingested through the cellular membrane.
The protist amoeba does. I think this process is called exocytosis.
Endocytosis, particularly, phagocytosis because the amoeba surrounds the food particle and engulfs it. The food particle is then enclosed into a food vacuole inside the cell where it can be accessed when the cell needs food.
