Question

Which of the following is a false feet by which amoeba swallows its food?

A.

Exopodia

B.

Pseudopodia

C.

Philopodia

D.

Reticulopodia

Correct option is B

Pseudopodia, meaning "false feet," are extensions of the cytoplasm used by amoeba for movement and food capture. Amoeba engulfs food particles by surrounding them with pseudopodia, forming a food vacuole where digestion occurs.

Key points:
● Pseudopodia enable amoeba to move and change shape.
● They are formed by the flow of cytoplasm toward the desired direction.
● Amoeba uses pseudopodia to engulf food through a process called phagocytosis.
● The food vacuole formed during this process is where digestion takes place.
● Pseudopodia are dynamic and retract once their function is complete.
● This adaptation allows amoeba to survive in aquatic environments.
