Amoeba can not make it own food because it is not autotrophs since it has no chloroplast.
The only organisms that can produce their own food are plants this process is known as photosynthesis.They make their own food using sunlight.
An amoeba and a Volvox are two examples of protists. The amoeba is heterotrophic (does not make its own food), and the Volvox is autotrophic (makes its own food through photosynthesis).
An amoeba feeds through a process called phagocytosis. Phagocytosis works by a cell engulfing its food source, puncturing the cell wall, and digests it in its food vacuole.
Amoeba is a heterotroph i.e they absorb their food directly from the external environment. Some are parasites. Amoeba eat algae, bacteria, plant cells and also protozoans.Amoebas engulf their food. They are heterotrophs. They cannot make their own food.
a amoeba engulfs it food by endocytosis
An amoeba (as just one example!).
Yes, the amoeba cell is a consumer. It is a consumer because it dose not produce its own food.
Nope! An amoeba is animal-like because it is a heterotroph, meaning it has to find its own food source.
No they do not. They "eat" through a process known as phagocytosis.
If an amoeba can create its own fuel using a process like photosynthesis, then yes. If it has to scavenge for its food, like herbivores, then it is a heterotroph.

The digestion of food in Amoeba takes place in the food vacuole. :)
