Solution

The correct option is A

Nutrition in amoeba by pseudopodia.


Phagocytosis is the process by which amoeba engulfs food particles. The food particles are bacteria or tiny little plant parts. As soon as the food is recognized, pseudopodia extend towards it and finally surround it completely (engulfs it) to form a food vacuole. Food vacuole further travels through the cytoplasm.
