Answer:

The answer is A) Phagocytosis.

Explanation:

An amoeba usually gets its nutrients from engulfing large food particles by the process of phagocytosis.

  1. As an amoeba approaches the desired food particle, it <u>extends it pseudopods</u> around it, eventually <em>surrounding the food </em>and internalizing it.
  2. The food then becomes enclosed by the pseudopodia, creating a <u>food vacuole</u>.
  3. Digestive enzymes, such as <u>lysosomes</u>, will <u>fuse with the food vacuole</u> and start breaking down the food. The nutrients will then be diffused throughout the cytoplasm.

  • Autonomic nervous system have -   Sympathetic and  Parasympathetic  system.
  • The somatic nervous system controls our voluntary and involuntary actions by cranial and spinal nerves and controls all three types of muscles such as cardiac, smooth and skeletal.
  • The autonomic nervous system controls the involuntary actions of our internal organs.
  • The sympathetic and parasympathetic system relates to all types of muscle.
  • The sympathetic and parasympathetic system accelerates and decelerates the heart beat respectively, by this controls the cardiac muscle.
  • The sympathetic and parasympathetic system stimulates and relaxes our internal organs respectively, by this controls the smooth muscles.
  • The sympathetic and parasympathetic system prepares our body as a whole for a action and also relaxes our whole body respectively, by this controls the skeletal muscles.
