How do amoeba like cells move?

Answer 1

They use their flaglellum to paddle through the water. If there is no flaglellum (hair-like structures on the outside of the cell) then they use there vacoule to suck in water and move forward.

Answer 2

An amoeba is a shapeless cell which can extrude a part of itself, which is called a pseudopod (literally, false foot) and then the remainder of the cell can flow into that pseudopod, at which point the amoeba has moved.

Answer 3

An amoeba might move using its cytoskeleton, because the single celled cell (or the amoeba) will be easier to move by itself and the cytoskeleton will push it so the cell can get where it needs to go in the body.

Answer 4

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.

Answer 5

By stretching out and pulling its body up to it

Answer 6

Amoeba moves with pseudopodia which are formed when the cytoplasm inside the cell membranes concentrates in one corner of cell.

Answer 7

with the use of the pseudopad

Answer 8

pseudopodia (false feet) in Latin

Answer 9

pseudopodia
