By the process of engulfment Amoebas take in food by phagocytosis, whereby small particles are engulfed by the cell and carried to the cytoplasm. Technically, white blood cells do not "take in food," however, the mechanism by which they engulf microorganisms, cellular debris, or other waste products is phagocytosis as well.
An amoeba and a white blood cell are both types of cells in the body. However, white blood cells are specifically part of the immune system and help fight infections, while amoebas are single-celled microorganisms typically found in aquatic environments. Both cells can move and engulf other particles for various functions.
White blood cells change shape constantly as they move through the body to engulf and destroy pathogens. Amoebas change shape constantly as they extend and retract their pseudopods in order to move and engulf food particles.
blood cells do not carry food, blood cells carry oxygen.
red blood cells and white blood cells the red blood cells keep us a live and the white blood cells fight off disease and infection. To complete the answer, the red cells carry oxygen from the lungs to the tissue, etc., cells that need it.
White blood cells use endocytosis to engulf any pathogens such as bacteria. By trapping the bacteria, the lysosomes in the cell can destroy the pathogen. A lysosome is a vacuole in a cell that is full of digestive enzymes. The Lysosome digests old cell organelles, invaders, and food. This explains why White Blood Cells are part of the immune system.

The blood plasma contains the red blood cells which carries the food nutrients and oxygen to all the cells.

Blood brings food and oxygen to your cells.
Very simply, Red corpuscles - containing haemoglobin to carry oxygen round the body from the lungs and carbon dioxide from the cells back to the lungs. White blood cells - several different types, but the main function is to remove infective bacteria from the blood. Platelets - small parrticles in the blood, necessary for blood clotting e.g. when you cut your finger Plasma - a yellowish watery fluid that is left after the red corpuscles, white cells and platelets are removed, that dissolves various substances (eg sugar, food, minerals, waste products etc) for transport round the body.

phagocytosis occurs in our body when some foreign particle enters inside it, our white blood cells engulf it, and then digest it. it is also how some microorganisms like ameoba get their food. example: white blood cell engulfing a large, liquid protein droplet.
AMOEBAS use pseudopods to get food...
Why is it important to keep the blood healthy?
