Solution

The correct option is B
Pseudopodia

Pseudopodia are temporary projections of eukaryotic cell membrane. They help amoeba in locomotion and in capturing food. Pseudopodia engulf the food particle, form a vacuole around it and when the food is completely trapped, they secrete digestive enzymes that digests the food.
