Detailed explanation-2: -Complete answer: The amoeba moves with the help of pseudopodia.
Detailed explanation-3: -Members of the phylum Sarcodina are ameboid. They move about by using pseudopods and usually eat by phagocytosing food particles, usually bacteria. Some amoeba form calcium carbonate or silica skeletons called tests to protect themselves.
