How does Amoeba take in its food?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: By surrounding it with pseudopodia
Amoeba shows holozoic nutrition but has no permanent mouth. When it encounters a food particle, temporary projections called pseudopodia extend around it and fuse, enclosing the particle in a food vacuole. Digestion then occurs inside that vacuole. Chewing requires a mouth, lungs are respiratory organs, and roots belong to plants, so option A is the only correct answer.
