The amoeba has pseudopods.
To keep the protozoan in the field of view, the slide must be moved in the opposite direction of the protozoan's movement. For example, if the protozoan is moving to the right, the slide should be moved to the left. This counter-movement helps maintain the organism within the microscope's field of view. Adjustments can also be made vertically or diagonally as needed, depending on the protozoan's trajectory.

An example of a symbiotic association involving a protozoan is the relationship between termites and the protozoan Trichonympha. In this association, Trichonympha lives in the guts of termites and helps them digest cellulose from wood, which the termites cannot break down on their own. In return, the protozoan receives a nutrient-rich environment and access to food. This mutualistic relationship benefits both organisms, showcasing a symbiotic association.
Trypanosomiasis caused protozoan trypanosoma.
Temporary extensions of a protozoan's cytoplasm are called pseudopods. Pseudopods are used for movement and feeding by extending and retracting to help the protozoan navigate its environment and capture prey.
the amoeba is a animal like protists, or protozoan, classified as a sarcodine because of its movement. the amoeba eats and moves with pseudopods. (Pseudopods from the Greek word ψευδοπόδια, ψευδός "fake, false" + πόδια"feet") the pseodopods will wrap around the targeted food source and absorb the molecules.the pseudopods move the cell by shifting the organelles and weight of the cell.
Amoeba: A unicellular organism that moves using pseudopods and feeds mainly on bacteria and algae. Paramecium: A ciliated protozoan that feeds on bacteria and other small organisms. Trypanosoma: A parasitic protozoan that causes diseases such as sleeping sickness and Chagas disease. Plasmodium: The protozoan responsible for causing malaria in humans. Giardia: A flagellated protozoan that can cause gastrointestinal illness in humans and animals.
Amoeba: A common unicellular protozoan that moves and feeds using pseudopods. Paramecium: A ciliated protozoan with a characteristic slipper-like shape. Trypanosoma: A parasitic protozoan that causes diseases like sleeping sickness and Chagas disease. Plasmodium: A protozoan parasite responsible for causing malaria in humans. Giardia: A flagellated protozoan that can cause gastrointestinal issues in humans and other animals.

pseudopods aka false foots use a food vacuole
Organisms that have pseudopods are known as amoebas. Pseudopods are temporary "false feet" that form by cytoplasmic streaming to enable movement and engulfment of food. Amoebas use pseudopods for locomotion and capturing prey.
Arcella move by extending and retracting their pseudopods, which are temporary projections of the cell membrane. By changing the direction and length of their pseudopods, Arcella can move in a rolling or gliding motion.
The plural form of protozoan is protozoa.
