Excretion in Amoeba occurs through:

1. lobopodia
2. diffusion through body surface
3. plasma membrane
4. contractile vacuole

Correct answer: diffusion through body surface

Solution

Amoeba is unicellular, so it does not have specialized excretory organs. Its metabolic wastes, especially carbon dioxide and ammonia, diffuse out through the body surface (cell membrane).
