Given below is a list of characteristics about amoeba and white blood cells. With reference to the statements, choose the correct option.
Statement 1: Both Amoeba and WBCs use pseudopodia for locomotion.
Statement 2: Both Amoeba and WBCs are capable of independent existence.
Statement 3: Both Amoeba and WBCs can change their shapes.
Statement 4: Both Amoeba and WBCs have a cell membrane.
None of the above
Both Amoeba and WBCs have cell membranes and can change their shapes. WBCs use pseudopodia to engulf the pathogen during phagocytosis as well as locomotion, while amoeba uses pseudopodia for locomotion and engulfing food. Amoeba is a unicellular organism and can exist independently. WBCs, on the other hand, are incapable of independent existence.
