Amoeba moves in water with the help of locomotory organs called_________?

Correct answer: C. pseudopodia

  • A. tube feet
  • B. cilia
  • C. pseudopodia
  • D. flagella

Explanation

Amoeba moves by extending temporary cytoplasmic projections called pseudopodia, whose formation depends on cytoplasmic streaming. Cilia and flagella are permanent hair-like or whip-like structures, so students may choose one of them by assuming every microscopic organism uses the same locomotory organ.
