Which of the following statements is/are correct?
I. Amoeba ingests its food with the help of pseudopodia.
II. Amoeba constantly changes its shape and position.

Both I and II

The correct answer is Option (4)- Both I and II

Both I and II are correct.

Explanation:

• I. Amoeba ingests its food with the help of pseudopodia: This statement is correct. Amoeba, a unicellular organism, extends pseudopodia (temporary projections of its cell membrane and cytoplasm) to surround and engulf its food particles. This process is known as phagocytosis.
• II. Amoeba constantly changes its shape and position: This statement is also correct. Amoeba exhibits a flexible and changeable cell shape due to its ability to form and retract pseudopodia. This characteristic allows Amoeba to move and capture food efficiently.

Therefore, the correct answer is Both I and II.
