Although amoebas are famous for being quite small they are actually on the large side for single-celled organisms. Many amoebas can be seen with the naked eye, and can grow up to about a millimetre in length. The most famous species of amoeba, Amoeba proteus, is around 700-800 micrometres in length, or 0.7-0.8mm.
an amoeba is 0.5 mm as big as a grain of salt

umm realy big loser faces
No, it is a single celled animal.
An amoeba grows exponentially through a process called binary fission, where it divides into two identical daughter cells. Under optimal conditions, an amoeba can double its population every few hours, leading to rapid population growth.

no, a single cell cannot grow.
Amoebas eat bacteria and microscopic protozoa for their nutrients. The materials obtained help the amoeba grow, and binary fission lets the amoeba reproduce.

yes they do because they split up and make more of them.
No. Diffusion only works for "cell" sized organisms.
Unicellular organisms typically range in size from a few micrometers to a few hundred micrometers, with some exceptions reaching up to one millimeter. These sizes are optimal for efficient nutrient uptake and waste removal due to their high surface area to volume ratio, allowing for rapid exchange with the environment.
