Expert Answer
Amoeba follows holozoic mode of nutrition in which the solid food particles are ingested which are then acted upon by enzymes and digested.
Steps of Nutrition in Amoeba:
- Amoeba engulfs food by temporary finger-like projections of its body surface called pseudopodia.
- When a pseudopodium fuses with the food particle, it forms a food vacuole.
- Complex substances are broken down into simple substances inside the food vacuole. These simple substances are then diffused into the cytoplasm.
- The remaining unwanted material is taken to the cell surface and is thrown out.
