Why are amoebas more likely to use endocytosis than red algae? (2 points)

Amoebas live in harsh environments and need to form endospores through endocytosis, while red algae rarely need to.
Reproduction in amoebas involves endocytosis, while reproduction in red algae involves spore formation.
The amoebas have to use endocytosis for photosynthesis while the red algae use pinocytosis during photosynthesis.
Endocytosis is the only way amoebas can bring food into their cells, while red algae can produce food by photosynthesis.

The correct answer is -- Endocytosis is the only way amoebas can bring food into their cells, while red algae can produce food by photosynthesis.

Amoeba is an unicellular organism. It is an heterotroph follows holozoic nutrition. It engulf its food with the help of pesudopodia. engulfing of solid food is called endocytosis, whereas red algae such as Polysiphonia is an autotroph which synthesis its own food by the process of photosynthesis. thus, in red algae endocytosis does not occur.
