Answer:

False foot

Step-by-step explanation:

The word Pseudopodia has two parts. The first pseudo which means false and second is podia which means foot. Amoeba does not have any foot in its structure. So it has a unique feature it forms the false foot of cytoplasm towards the food and engulfs that food particle.
