Amoeboids will eat pretty much anything smaller than themselves, inlcuding bacteria, diatoms, and cilliates.

What do psedopods eat?
psedopods are amoeboids that have "false feet", they are found ini pond and dirty water, they eat big chunks of food, and they go into connective tissues to eat bacteria
Do protozoa have false feet?
Any organism that moves by means of pseudopodia (false feet) is called an amoeboid. Amoeboids are a branch of protozoans, but there are porotzoans that are not amoeboids. The answer to your question is that some protozoa (amoeboids) have pseudopodia (false feet), but the rest do not.
What is an organism that feeds by phagocytosis?
Amoeboids
What do you call the projection that allows amoeboids to move and feed?
Pseudopodia.
Do amoeboids never have a shell?
No If this is for school don't use this answer it may be wrong.
What is the major differences between ciliates and amoeboids?
the answer is charmaine s. alforque
How do slime molds behave when food and water are scarce?
Amoeboids, Sporozoans, and Flagellates
Which one of the following statements describes a characteristic of amoeboids They never have a shell they always live in fresh water they have pseudopods or they're animals?
Amoeboids have pseudopods. They use pseudopodia to move around and feed. The pseudopods are part of the cell wall, filled with cytoplasm. They change their form in order to move.
What are three protozoan groups and their form of locomotion?
Actually protozoa are divided into groups according to their form of locomotion. They include flagellates, amoeboids, and ciliates. Flagellates have one or more whip-like organelles that are used to move around. Amoeboids have extensions of eukaryotic cells that expand and contract, causing locomotion. Ciliates have hair-like extensions around. The hair-like extensions are similar to flagellates' whip-like extensions but are much shorter and finer.
What are the three main types of protozoa?
There are four subgroups of protozoans called ciliates, flagellates, amoeboids and sporozoans. They all have animal characteristics and they all have a single eukaryotic cell.
What is an amoeboid?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaForaminiferan(Ammonia tepida)Amoeboids are single-celled life-forms characterized by an irregular shape.[1]"Amoeboid" and "amœba" are often used interchangeably even by biologists,[2] and especially refer to a creature moving by using pseudopodia. Most references to "amoebas" or "amoebae" are to amoeboids in general rather than to the specific genus Amoeba. The genus Amoeba and amoeboids in general both derive their names from the ancient Greek word for change
How are ciliated like and different from amoeboids?
The Sarcomastigophora phylum belongs to the Protista Kingdom, and has 2 Subphyla: Mastigophora, flagellates that use flagella as their form of locomotion; and Sarcodina (sarcodines), known as amoeboids, that contain protozoa and use projections called pseudopods as their form of locomotion.Ciliates are protists with hair-like organelles called cilia, which are identical in structure to flagella but typically shorter and present in much larger numbers, and have a different undulating pattern than flagella. Cilia are variously used in swimming, crawling, attachment, feeding, and sensation.
