Phagocytosis
Added:
A more precise answer here is that this is a form of endocytosis. Phagocytosis usually is particle engulfing without the vesicle, necessarily.
When a cell engulfs a particle, it is called phagocytosis. Certain white blood cells phagocytize and digest infectious particles like bacteria to kill them.
Large molecules enter a cell through a process called endocytosis. This involves the cell engulfing the molecule by forming a vesicle around it, which is then brought into the cell. There are different types of endocytosis, such as phagocytosis (engulfing solid particles) and pinocytosis (engulfing liquid particles).
Phagocytosis is called 'cell eating' because it is a process in which a cell engulfs and digests particles or other cells by forming a vesicle around them. This process is similar to a cell 'feeding' on external material by actively engulfing it.

The process of transporting substances from the outside to the inside of a cell using a vesicle is called endocytosis. Endocytosis includes phagocytosis (engulfing solid particles), pinocytosis (engulfing liquid or small particles), and receptor-mediated endocytosis (specific molecules binding to receptors on the cell membrane).

Yes, engulfing a particle of food by an amoeba requires energy as it involves the process of endocytosis where the cell membrane surrounds and engulfs the food particle. This process requires ATP, the cell's energy currency, to power the necessary molecular machinery.
exocytosis- particles are expelled from a cell or body- vessicles (sacs) containing the particles fuse with the cell membrane and the contents are expelled endocytosis- particles are induced within a cell- cell membrane forms around them and takes them in: * pinocytosis: engulfing of liquid particles * phagocytosis: engulfing of solid particles (such as a white blood cell engulfing a pathogen)
Amoebas feed by engulfing food particles through a process called phagocytosis. They extend their pseudopods around the food particle, forming a food vacuole that contains the particle. Digestive enzymes are then secreted into the food vacuole to break down the food for absorption.
An amoeba feeds by engulfing food particles through a process called phagocytosis. It surrounds the food particle with its cell membrane to form a food vacuole, which then fuses with lysosomes to digest the food. The nutrients are then absorbed into the cytoplasm for energy and growth.

amoeba is a phagocyte. it means that it is a cell which absorbs waste material, harmful microorganisms, or other cells by engulfing them. the process of engulfing food is called phagocytosis.
Protazoa and protis engulfs their food
Endocytosis takes material into the cell by infolding of the cell membrane. Exocytosis releases large amounts of material. Endocytosis: the process in which a cell membrane surrounds a particle and encloses the particle in a vesicle to bring the particle into the cell Excocytosis: the process in which a cell releases a particle by enclosing the particle in a vesicle that then moves to the cell surface and fuses with the cell membrane Endocytis is a process in the cell that happens when a cell is taking in a substance(Nutrients, Medicine, etc.) for uses inside the cell, Exocytosis is when the cell is getting rid of the waste

Yes, engulfing requires energy because the amoeba must expend energy to rearrange its cytoplasm and membrane to surround and engulf the food particle. This process involves active transport mechanisms to move the engulfed material inside the cell.
