Amoeba
Unicellular (single celled) animals. Aquatic, free-living or parasitic organisms. Locomotion with the help of finger-like projections called pseudopodia, cilia or flagella. Nutrition is heterotropic. Reproduction is by binary or multiple fission and conjugation. Example: ..
Circumfluence
- When the prey is inactive and the amoeba rolls over it. ..
