What happens in the movement of molecules in passive transport?
In passive transport, molecules move across a cell membrane from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration, driven by the concentration gradient. This process does not require energy input from the cell. Common types of passive transport include simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion, and osmosis.
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.
Why can amoeba get so large?
Well, the amoeba is a very complicated type of cell life form. An Amoeba does not go through a well planned diet, so they get much larger then other cells. Amoeba's basically eat anything they can find or die trying.
What does the Nucleus in the amoeba do?
As with all cells, multicellular and unicellular, the nucleus acts as the controller of the cell. In an amoeba, it controlls movement, when to eat, and controlls reproductive abilities.
What is amoebaes species?
The species that contains amoeba is the indocalclative species. They are only found in Africa and are extremely hard to come by. They eat away at anything they can touch.
Do amoeba's produce their own food?
No they do not. They "eat" through a process known as phagocytosis.

What do amoeba eat on?
Amoeba eats other organisms and smaller protists
When does a amoeba eat?
To eat, the amoeba stretches out the pseudopod, surrounds a piece of food, and pulls it into the rest of the amoeba's body. Amoebas eat algae, bacteria, other protozoans, and tiny particles of dead plant or animal matter.

What does amoeba eat by?
To eat, the amoeba stretches out the pseudopod, surrounds a piece of food, and pulls it into the rest of the amoeba's body. Amoebas eat algae, bacteria, other protozoans, and tiny particles of dead plant or animal matter. Amoebas reproduce (make more amoebas) by a process called binary fission.
What body part allows amoeba to move?
The psuedopod is used to help the amoeba move, and also to eat. It is a part of the amoeba's body that it can stretch out and pull itself with.
