The hardest thing about being Amoeba is telling your parents you touch yourself at night.
Amoeba is classified under the kingdom Protista because it exhibits characteristics of both plants and animals. Amoebas are unicellular organisms with a flexible cell membrane that allows them to move and engulf their food like animals, but they lack specialized tissues and organs found in true animals. This unique combination of features places them in a separate kingdom apart from animals.
Amoeba is animal-like because they can not do photosynthesis which other plant-like protists can do. Amoeba are protozoans. Amoeba hunt for their food. They eat bacteria, smaller protozoans and other smaller organisms.
Amoeba IS an one celled animal. Bacteria is NOT an animal.
Amoeba belong in the Kingdom Protista.
Yes, because it is a Protazoe, and a protzoe is and animals. That makes and amoeba an animal.
Amoeba is an animal-like, one-celled organism.
Amoeba proteus, the common amoeba, is currently classified in Kingdom Amoebozoa. Older sources may list amoebae under the now-defunct Kingdom Protista or (in really old books) Kingdom Animalia. The change is because of the current trend to define taxonomic groups on evolutionary kinship.
No, an amoeba is not classified under the Monera kingdom. Amoebas belong to the Protista kingdom. Monera is a traditional kingdom that includes bacteria and archaea.
Protista
The amoebas are in the protista kingdom.
1) Living things with only one cell are called unicellular organisms. 2) Examples of unicellular organisms are yeast, Amoeba, Paramecium, Euglena and Chlamydomonas. They are also known as unicellular microorganisms because of their tiny size. 3) Amoeba and Paramecium belong to the animal kingdom. 4) Chlamydomonas, Euglena and Pleurococcus belong to the plant kingdom.

You would find an amoeba in the kingdom Protista. Amoebas are single-celled organisms that have a complex internal structure and are commonly found in freshwater environments.
