Psuedopodia translates in Greek as literally "fake foot". It is a temporary structure extending from the amoeba and is the means by which it moves. Other animal cells, such as white blood cells, also move using this mechanism.
The pseudopod also extends toward and engulfs food and liquid to sustain the amoeba.
protists. most likely consumers. they use flagella, cilia, and pseudopodia ( they are a mode of movement)
Amoeba. This type of motion is known as "amoeboid motion".
The main two characteristics of living things are: -The ability to grow -A consistency of cells

pseudopodia
An amoeba moves through a process called amoeboid movement, using temporary extensions of its cell membrane called pseudopodia. These pseudopodia extend and contract to propel the amoeba in the direction it wants to move.
The amoeba
Pseudopods are flowing extensions of the amoeba's cytoplasm, which the amoeba use to move around. They do this by stick a part of their cytoplasm outward to an open area, then the part will pull the rest of the amoeba toward it.
Pseudopodia in an amoeba serve a few functions, including movement by extending and contracting to propel the organism, capturing food by engulfing it through phagocytosis, and sensing and responding to environmental cues.
An example of pseudopodia is found in amoebas, which are single-celled organisms that move and feed by extending and retracting these temporary, finger-like projections. Amoebas use pseudopodia for activities such as capturing food particles, engulfing them, and moving around their environment.
Amoebas move by means of pseudopodia, or the sarcodine protozoa. This characteristic movement involves the extrusion of the cytoplasm for movement or for feeding by engulfing food.
No. Amoeba and ciliates are two groups of protozoan parasites. The amoeba are unicellular, which are characterized by the pseudopodia. Ciliates are protozoa, unicellular and use cilia on their surface.
Amoeba-like cells move using a process called amoeboid movement, which involves extending projections of their cytoplasm called pseudopodia. The cell extends these pseudopods in the direction of movement and then pulls the rest of the cell forward. This movement is driven by the rearrangement of the cytoskeleton within the cell.
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.
An amoeba uses a process called phagocytosis to "drink." This involves the amoeba extending projections of its cell membrane called pseudopods to engulf and internalize food particles or liquids. Once inside the amoeba, the food is enclosed in a membrane-bound vesicle called a food vacuole, where it is digested.
Amoebas use pseudopods, which are temporary bulges of their cell membrane, to move around. By extending and retracting these pseudopods, amoebas are able to crawl and engulf food particles.
