Amoeba is a unicellular, microscopic organism which lives in pond water. It has a cell membrane, a round and dense nucleus, and many bubble-like vacuoles in the cytoplasm. It eats tiny plants and animals present in pond water. The body of Amoeba has finger-like projections called pseudopodia which ingests the food. When a food particle comes near Amoeba, the pseudopodia surrounds the food particles and trap the food with a little water forming a food vacuole inside its body. The surrounding cytoplasm secretes digestive enzymes into the food vacuole which acts on the food and thus it gets digested and absorbed directly into the cytoplasm by the process of diffusion. The absorbed food is used for the production of energy which is used for maintenance and growth of Amoeba. The undigested food collects inside Amoeba, near the cell membrane which gets ruptured to throw the undigested food.
