Beth learned in her science class that white blood cells in the human body capture harmful material by engulfing them. Then they digest then using enzymes, thus protecting the body from infection. Which eukaryote has a similar mode of nutrition?

White blood cells or WBC are an important part of the immune system as they help in eradicating the harmful foreign material by engulfing them from the body. This process of engulfing the material is known as "phagocytosis".

Amoeba is a protozoan which takes food by invaginating of ingesting the food material from the surrounding. This process of ingesting food or material (Phagocytosis) is similar to the ability of the WBC.

Since both the cells show the process of phagocytosis, therefore, option 3- amoeba is the correct answer.
