how do ameba obtain food?

Amoeba Obtain Its Food By Amoeba takes in food using temporary finger-like extensions of the cell surface which fuse over the food particle forming a food-vacuole. Inside the food vacuole, complex substances are broken down into simpler ones which then diffuse into the cytoplasm.

['All animals take in food, water and oxygen as raw material from the outside.', 'As for plants, they take in carbon dioxide, water and sunlight to synthesize their own food in the presence of chlorophyll(found in green plants).']

Trypanosomes feed by absorbing nutrients, through their outer membrane, from the body fluids of the host. The proteins, carbohydrates and fats are digested by enzyme systems within their protoplasm.

The jellyfish feeds on plankton, drawing a water current past its outstretched tentacles by pulsating the bell. When edible zooplankton are encountered, they are immobilised by the cnidocytes (stinging cells) and passed by the tentacles to the mouth on the underside of the bell.

“They eat seed from a feeder, but when they have young, they don't feed them seed. They go catch caterpillars and spiders and soft-bodied animals that are more nutritious than seeds.”

Producers can make their own food by capturing the sun's energy, but consumers and decomposers can't. Consumers need to eat other organisms to obtain energy. Decomposers are like the recyclers of nature. They obtain energy for their own needs while returning simple molecules to the environment.

It has flexible cell membrane. It engulfs the food particle with the help of pseudopodia and then forms a vacuole around it. When the particle is completely trapped the amoeba secretes digestive enzymes that digests the food. thus the amoeba obtains it's food.

These ants are attracted to sweets and all varieties of sugary foods and scraps. They also eat fats, proteins (obtained from eating other insects), and plant pollen. Once they find a food source, they'll haul food back to their nest for the rest of the colony.

Dissimilarity: Human beings have a complex digestive system and different nutrients are digested in separate regions. Amoeba does not have a digestive system and all the nutrients are digested in the food vacuole.

Ruminants have multi-chambered stomachs, and food particles must be made small enough to pass through the reticulum chamber into the rumen chamber. Inside the rumen, special bacteria and protozoa secrete the necessary enzymes to break down the various forms of cellulose for digestion and absorption.

Besides human-created food, cockroaches also consider other organic matter as a source of food. A primary example would be wood (especially if it's damp and/or rotting) as well as items derived from wood such as cardboard, paper, and paper bags.

The main way seeds are spread is through animals eating them, digesting them, and then excreting them.

The amoeba uses phagocytosis to feed on organisms (Figure 4). The pseudopods extend around the food material and form a food vacuole. ... When the amoeba needs nutrients, chemicals are released into the vacuole to break down the stored food. The food particles are then able to diffuse into the cytoplasm of the cell.

When food is plentiful, many Hydra reproduce asexually by producing buds in the body wall, which grow to be miniature adults and break away when they are mature. When a hydra is well fed, a new bud can form every two days.

The leaves die or get moldy. This is because the poorly grown plant can't muster the energy to properly digest the plant and so the food rots instead of being digested. Even if healthy, your plants really do not need to be fed! They will survive perfectly well without you giving them bugs.

During the growth of a plant, its leaves act as the source of food as they carry out photosynthesis. The phloem conducts the food from the source to the sink (the part of the plant requiring or storing food). ... Thus, the movement of food in the phloem is bidirectional (i.e., upward and downward).

They prey on small animals, including birds, lizards and insects, as well as some fruits and seeds. Uneaten food may be stored in the fork or a branch or impaled.
