If by "germs" you mean bacteria... yes. They can eat in a few different ways. Active transport, however, is probably the most common way. Active transport is the process by which the cell (the bacteria) grabs a molecule of glucose or other food and pulls it in through the cell wall.
Inducing mutations in bacteria
These are three different ways that cells have to get things in and out of the cell. Passive transport is movement without the use of energy, active transport requires energy.Active transport requires energy since the molecules are going toward a region that has a higher concentration of that molecule. The cell is 'stuffing' more into itself.Endocytosis means to 'take into the cell'. Usually this a larger molecule and cell must wrap part of itself around the molecule and then can bring it inside. This is a type of phagocytosis (cell eating).This requires energy as well.
There are many forms of membrane and cell transport. These are the basic transport mechanisms in a prokaryotic animal cell. Facilitated Diffusion Osmosis Diffusion Exocytosis (this takes two forms; phagocytosis and pinocytosis depending on whether the cell is "eating" or "drinking") Endocytosis Carrier Molecules/Channel Proteins
No
Animals that live on bacteria include paramecium and amoeba. Besides eating bacteria, these organisms can also exist on algae and dead plant and animal material.
Yes there is. One is the famous brain eating amoeba.

The amoeba finds tiny particles of organic matter, and eats them. All animals get energy in essentially the same way, by eating food. The food can then be used as fuel for the metabolism.

Engulfing, protein transfer, and ill get back to y'all on the last one lol ^^^ Those aren't really examples of active transport, just names of characteristics of an active transport. Active transport is the movement of ions or molecules across a cell membrane into a region of higher concentration, assisted by enzymes and requiring energy. Endocytosis-A process in which a cell takes in materials from the outside by engulfing and fusing them with its plasma membrane. There are two types of endocytosis, called phagocytosis, which means cell-eating, and pinocytosis, which means cell-drinking. Sodium-Potassium Pump-Nerve cell membranes also contain carrier proteins that actively transport sodium ions out of the cell and potassiu ions into the cell.
To make bacteria with new abilities. Like eating oil.
