Solution

The correct option is A Pseudopodia
An amoeba is a term generally used to describe a single-celled eukaryotic organism that has no definite shape and that moves by means of pseudopodia. Pseudopodia or pseudopods are temporary projections of the cell and the word literally means "false feet". The cell uses the pseudopodia as a means of locomotion.

So, the correct option is 'Pseudopodia'.
