Yes, engulfing a particle of food by an amoeba requires energy as it involves the process of endocytosis where the cell membrane surrounds and engulfs the food particle. This process requires ATP, the cell's energy currency, to power the necessary molecular machinery.
Yes, engulfing requires energy because the amoeba must expend energy to rearrange its cytoplasm and membrane to surround and engulf the food particle. This process involves active transport mechanisms to move the engulfed material inside the cell.
Elements with relatively small nuclear binding energy per nuclear particle include elements with high atomic number (e.g. transuranium elements) and elements with unstable isotopes. These elements require more energy to hold their nucleus together, resulting in smaller binding energy per nuclear particle.
The expectation value of energy for a particle in a box is the average energy that the particle is expected to have when measured. It is calculated by taking the integral of the probability distribution of the particle's energy over all possible energy values.
The energy possessed by a particle due to its motion is called kinetic energy. It depends on the mass of the particle and its velocity.
The Lagrangian for a particle moving on a sphere is the kinetic energy minus the potential energy of the particle. It takes into account the particle's position and velocity on the sphere.

The primary sources of energy for an amoeba are organic matter such as bacteria, algae, and other small organisms that it engulfs through phagocytosis. Once ingested, the amoeba breaks down these organic molecules into nutrients like sugars and amino acids to generate energy through cellular respiration.
An amoeba gathers food through a process called phagocytosis, where it surrounds and engulfs its food, such as bacteria or algae, with its cell membrane to form a food vacuole. Enzymes are then released into the vacuole to digest the food, allowing the amoeba to absorb the nutrients.
When an amoeba eats a bacteria, it engulfs the bacteria into its cytoplasm through a process called phagocytosis. The bacteria is then enclosed in a food vacuole and digested by enzymes within the vacuole, providing the amoeba with nutrients for energy and growth. Any waste products from the digestion process are expelled from the cell.
surrounding it with its cell membrane, forming a food vacuole. The food vacuole then fuses with lysosomes containing digestive enzymes, which break down the food into nutrients that can be absorbed by the amoeba for energy.
An amoeba uses a food vacuole to digest and break down food particles that it engulfs. The vacuole contains enzymes that help in the process of intracellular digestion, allowing the amoeba to absorb nutrients for energy and growth. Once digestion is complete, any undigested material is expelled from the cell.
I do not think there is anything that does not require matter. Matter has mass, and mass is the same as energy, so if something does not have mass or energy, it does not exist. Even the smallest elementary particle, the muon neutrino, has energy; therefore it has mass; therefore it is matter.
Yes, both amoeba and euglena are single-celled organisms that can survive independently without each other. They obtain their nutrients and energy from their surroundings, so they do not require a symbiotic relationship to survive.
Amoeba obtain its food by the process of endocytosis. It is due to the flexibility of cell membrane as it enables the cell to engulf food and other materials from its external environment. There are four ways in which an amoeba can ingest solid food: 1. Circumvalletion-when the prey is active and motile, e.g. Any smaller protist 2. Circumfluence- when the particle is sessile e.g. Unicellular algae 3. Import- then particle comes into contact with the amoeba and then sinks into it just like in quicksand. 4. Invagination- the amoeba does'nt use it's pseudopodia here, instead it pinches off a portion of it membrane to form a tube like structure which, along with the particle makes a food vacuole.
