Entamoeba cells are small, with a single nucleus and typically a single lobose pseudopod taking the form of a clear anterior bulge. They have a simple life cycle. The trophozoite (feeding-dividing form) is approximately 10-20 μm in diameter and feeds primarily on bacteria.
Entamoeba histolytica is an anaerobic parasitic amoebozoan, part of the genus Entamoeba. Predominantly infecting humans and other primates causing amoebiasis , E. histolytica is estimated to infect about 35-50 million people worldwide. [1]

It is a parasite that infects an estimated 50 million people around the world and is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in developing countries.
Feb 13, 2017 · Introduction. Entamoeba histolytica is a unicellular, protozoon parasite of humans. It moves by a jelly-like tongue-like protrusion of the cytoplasm “pseudopodium.” Infection with E. histolytica may be the cause of a variety of symptoms, beginning from no symptoms to severe fulminating intestinal and/or life-threatening extraintestinal disease.
