A diagram in the course handout shows that a laboratory slide shows an irregular cell extending temporary finger-like projections to move and capture food. Identify the related structure or process.

Correct Answer: A

pseudopodia

Amoeba moves and feeds by pseudopodia, which are temporary extensions of cytoplasm. These projections help in amoeboid locomotion and engulfing food particles by phagocytosis. This MCQ belongs to the Amoeba topic in Animal Diversity-I and is written to test concept understanding rather than memorized wording.
