Amoebas exhibit a heterotrophic mode of metabolism, primarily relying on phagocytosis to obtain nutrients. They engulf food particles, such as bacteria and organic matter, using their pseudopodia to form food vacuoles where digestion occurs. Their metabolism includes both aerobic and anaerobic respiration, depending on the availability of oxygen in their environment. This versatility allows them to thrive in various habitats, from freshwater to soil.
The amoeba is considered alive because it exhibits the characteristics of life, such as growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli. It can also maintain homeostasis, metabolism, and cellular organization characteristic of living organisms.
No. The amoeba is a protist.
An amoeba does not have eyes
Amoeba are not photosynthetic. They do not have chloroplasts
The endoplasm in amoeba is the inner, granular part of its cell body where organelles and structures such as the nucleus and food vacuoles are located. It is involved in various cellular processes such as metabolism, digestion, and movement within the cell.

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.

An amoeba defines life through its ability to grow, reproduce, respond to stimuli, and maintain homeostasis. These single-celled organisms also exhibit movement, metabolism, and the ability to adapt to their environment, which are characteristics of life.
Metabolism in marine mammals equates to their breathing rate.
