In 3-5 sentences, compare the process of digesting food in an amoeba ( unicellular) to those in a mouse ( multicellular)

Answer 1

The process of digesting food in an amoeba is relatively simple as it uses a process called phagocytosis, where it engulfs food particles and digests them within its single cell. In contrast, a mouse has a complex digestive system consisting of various organs like the mouth, stomach, and intestines. Food is broken down by mechanical and chemical processes, absorbed through the walls of the intestine, and transported to various body parts through the circulatory system.
