The correct option is B Pinocytosis
In Amoeba, the soluble organic substances and salts are absorbed then the mode of nutrition is called pinocytosis.
Pinocytosis (fluid endocytosis or bulk-phase pinocytosis) is a form of endocytosis in which extracellular fluid or liquid is engulfed and are brought into a cell by the budding of small vesicles on the surface.
So, the correct answer is 'Pinocytosis'.
