At least, if you're sitting in a pub in Oregon. Because as everyone knows, a pint has 16 ounces. But in bars, taverns, and pubs across our fair state, there are pints that only have 14 ounces. In fact, most bars serve cheater pints with only 14 ounces. And all this time, you've been getting ripped off-getting only 87.5% of the beer you've ordered and paid for. Fortunately, BlueOregon co-founder and consumer advocate Jeff Alworth has launched a campaign to fix this.
Pseudopods are temporary cytoplasmic projections of the cell membrane in certain unicellular protists such as amoeba. Pseudopods, also called pseudopodia (singular: pseudopodium), literally means false foot. That is because they are associated with locomotion. Amoeba, for instance, moves in a distinctively crawling-like manner in which the cell forms pseudopods towards the front of the cell.
The amoeba moves by continually changing its body shape, forming extensions called pseudopods (false feet) into which its body then flows. The pseudopods also are used to surround and capture foodâmainly bacteria, algae, and other protozoaâfrom the surrounding water.n amoeba (pronounced uh-MEE-buh) is any of several tiny, one-celled protozoa in the phylum (or primary division of the animal kingdom) Sarcodina. Amoebas live in freshwater and salt water, in soil, and as parasites in moist body parts of animals.
