Question

Which of the following protist groups correctly completes the sentence below?

_______ are consumers that surround, engulf, and ingest their food.

Amoeba

Paramecia

Volvox

Euglena

Answer 1

Amoeba are consumers that surround, engulf, and ingest their food.

Step-by-step explanation:

• Amoeba is organisms that belong to the kingdom Protista. Protists are eukaryotic, which potential they are made of complex eukaryotic cells, and most are unicellular. An amoeba is a consumer, which ability it has to find and ingest meals to gain strength and survive. Amoeba resembles a blob in their appearance, and goes with the use of pseudopodia, or 'false feet.'

• This process is explained in the Exocytosis process. Exocytosis is an important system of plant and animal cells as it performs the opposite characteristic of endocytosis. In exocytosis, membrane-bound vesicles containing cellular molecules are transported to the membrane.

Answer 2

Amoeba are the consumers that surround, engulf, and ingest their food.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amoeba is a unicellular organism that belongs to the kingdom Protista. This organism are having eukaryotic cells without any cell walls. These organisms have each and every cellular organelle that are needed to perform metabolism.

Amoeba are consumer in mode of nutrition. Whenever they senses some food, they push a part of their cytoplasm packed in cell membrane towards the food to cover it. This process is called pseupodia.

This pseupodia engulfs the food and performs phagocytosis or pinocytosis. This food is covered in a cell membrane inside the cytoplasm which is called the food vacoule or endosome. This then fuses with a lysosome to digest and then the excretory product is let off by the secondary vacoule.
