Actually, the amoebae uses it outer cell membrane. It arranges it's microtubles into an extension into the membrane that pushes it out into the arm called the pseudopodia ( the term you need ). Then it just pulls itself along after the extended pseudopodia.
Another answer could be a pseudopod.
What else can I help you with?
What will happen if amoeba is put in distilled water?
since distilled water is hypotinic to the amoeba's cell sap water moves into the amoeba through osmosis diluting it's cell sap, the contractile vacuole become more active in order to eliminate excess water
Why amoeba in a hypotonic solution shrinks?
Amoebas have a higher concentration of solutes inside their cells compared to the hypotonic solution outside. Water moves from the hypotonic solution into the amoeba's cell through osmosis, causing the cell to swell and potentially burst. To prevent this, the amoeba expels water and shrinks in size in order to maintain internal balance.
Does the ameba have a nucleus?
The nucleus in an Amoeba controls everything that goes on in th cell. It is the brain of the cell.
What advantage does an amoeba cell have over a lizard cell in relation to their levels of organization?
Two advantage that amoeba has over lizard in relation to their level of organization
How many cells make up amoeba?
one
Are ameba's harmful?
amoeba's the single cell organism's are not harmful to humans. Matter of fact you most likely have Millions of amoeba and other single cell organisms living around and inside you at all times. And by the way you spelled amoeba wrong. NOTE TO USER WHO ANSWERED^^^^: You can spell Ameba or Amoeba either way. Ameoba is the common way to spell it.
Is amoeba a cell or organism?
amoeba is cell not a organism.
Cells are in an amoeba?
cells are in a amoeba
What will happen if amoeba is put in distilled water?
since distilled water is hypotinic to the amoeba's cell sap water moves into the amoeba through osmosis diluting it's cell sap, the contractile vacuole become more active in order to eliminate excess water
Is amoeba a variable shape cell?
yes amoeba is a variable shape cell
Why would you expect a freshwater amoeba to be more likely to have contractile vacuoles than a marine amoeba?
Because the surrounding freshwater concentration is higher than the salt concentration inside and so all the water from the vacuoles has left because of osomosis. while the marine amoeba has the surrounding salt concentration equal to the concentration inside the vacuole.
Why amoeba in a hypotonic solution shrinks?
Amoebas have a higher concentration of solutes inside their cells compared to the hypotonic solution outside. Water moves from the hypotonic solution into the amoeba's cell through osmosis, causing the cell to swell and potentially burst. To prevent this, the amoeba expels water and shrinks in size in order to maintain internal balance.
How much cells are in an amoeba?
there are only one cell in amoeba
Is an amoeba an example of a prokaryotic cell?
No Amoeba is not prokaryotic , it is Protist .
The extension of pseudopodia in amoeba is due to?
The extension of pseudopodia in amoeba is due to the rearrangement of cytoskeletal proteins, particularly actin filaments, which push the cell membrane outward in the direction of movement. This process allows amoebas to change shape and move by creating temporary structures that help them engulf food and navigate their environment.
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
Does an an amoeba have cells?
yes,but it is an unicellular organisms it has only one cell.
