Question

In Amoeba which of the following helps in digestion?

• A. Pseudopodia
• B. Cytoplasm
• C. Nucleus
• D. Vacuole

Answer 1

The correct option is D Vacuole

• Digestion in Amoeba is intracellular; taking place within the cell.
• The food taken in remains in a food vacuole or gastric vacuole formed by the cell membrane and small part of the cytoplasm.
• The vacuoles are transported deeper into the cells by cytoplasmic movements. Here they fuse with lysosomes that contain enzymes. Hence, in Amoeba vacuole helps in digestion.

So, the correct answer is 'vacuole'.
