Amoeba: Movements & History

An amoeba or ameba (/ə.ˈmiː.bə/; pl.: amoebas or amebas (less commonly, amoebae or amebae /ə.ˈmiː.bi/)), often called an amoeboid, is a type of cell or unicellular organism with the ability to alter its shape, primarily by extending and retracting pseudopods. Amoebae do not form a single taxonomic group; instead, they are found in every major lineage of…
