Which substance found in th cytoplasm of an ameba is an inorganic compound?
Water is an inorganic substance found in the cytoplasm of an amoeba.
Which of the following parts is necessary for movement by pseudopodia A Cilia B cytoplasm C Vacuole D Amoeba?
A cytoplasm is necessary for movement by pseudopodia in amoeba. Pseudopodia are temporary cytoplasmic projections that the amoeba extends and retracts to move and capture prey.
What is the structure motility in Amoeba?
Amoeba moves by extending pseudopods, which are temporary projections of the cell membrane and cytoplasm. These pseudopods are formed when the cytoplasm flows in the direction of movement. This structure allows Amoeba to exhibit an adaptable and flexible form of motility.
In an amoeba a small cavity within the cytoplasm that stores food is called what?
The small cavity within the cytoplasm of an amoeba that stores food is called a food vacuole. This structure helps the amoeba digest and break down food particles for energy.
Which type of protist changes shapes by moving its cytoplasm and stretching its membrane?
Amoeba
Is an amoeba made up of cells?
no. an amoeba cell is a unicellular organism, which means that it is only made up of one cell
What and how do amoeba's eat?
An amoeba cell eats other unicellular organisms like paramecium, bacteria, and plant cells. Some are even parasitic! Amoeba cells eat by moving its cytoplasm (also called pseudopods) around its prey. The prey is literally inside the amoeba now. The Amoeba forms a vacuole around it and breaks it down for nourishment and absorbs it through its cytoplasm.
What animal like protist moves by forming temporary bulges of cytoplasm?
Amoeba :O
The phenomenon of cytoplasm flowing from the hindmost to the foremost part of the amoeba is known as?
Cytoplasmic streaming
Does an amoeba move by sending out projections of cytoplasm called pseudopods?
Yes, that is correct. Amoebas move by extending and retracting pseudopods, which are temporary projections of their cytoplasm. This allows them to change shape and move towards sources of food or away from harmful stimuli.
In an amoeba a small cavity within the cytoplasm that stores food is called?
In an amoeba, the small cavity within the cytoplasm that stores food is called a food vacuole. This structure is formed when the amoeba engulfs a food particle through the process of phagocytosis, and the food vacuole serves to digest and break down the food for nutrients.
Inside the plasma membrane of the amoeba is a layer of cytoplasm called?
The layer of cytoplasm inside the plasma membrane of an amoeba is called endoplasm. It is more fluid than the outer layer, known as ectoplasm, and is where most of the cellular organelles and structures are located.
