Solution
During ingestion, Amoeba pushes out the pseudopodia to encircle the food and engulfs it forming a food vacuole.
Digestive juices are secreted into the food vacuole. They act on the food and break it down into simpler substances.
In absorption, the nutrients from the digested food material are absorbed into the cell’s cytoplasm, leaving behind the undigested particles.
Assimilation is the process of obtaining energy from the absorbed food molecules.
The undigested residue of the food is expelled outside by the vacuole.
