Answer:

The protist wraps around its prey, which is usually bacteria. It creates a food vacuole, a sort of "food storage compartment," around the bacteria. The protist produces toxins which paralyze its prey. Once digested, the food material moves through the vacuole and into the cytoplasm of the protist.
