An amoeba is a shapeless blob of ''jelly'' that engulfs random objects on its way to know where in particular. Amoeba move by using their pseudopodium which is a "false leg." Amoeba can be harmful or helpful to man-kind and other living things. Amoebas are composed of just one cell. They are protozoans with no fixed shape. Most have no hard parts and look like blobs of jelly. However, some amoebas do build shells. Amoebas move by making part of its body move in the direction it wants to travel. Then slowly the rest of the cell follows. In order to eat an Amoeba flows around other microorganisms and then engulfs them. To reproduce the Amoeba splits itself into two cells.

amoebocytes can have a variety of jobs. for example sponges don't have circulatory systems, so amoebocytes work AS it, if that makes sense... they distribute the nutrition collected by choanocytes to other cells in the system. amoebocytes can also change into other cell type to do whatever is needed, like reproduction, growth, or repair the sponges "skeleton".
