👉 A myophore is a type of amoeba that can grow up to 10 times its own size in just a few hours. It is commonly found on surfaces like rocks, soil, and carpets. Myophores are also known as "white ants" because they have white spots on their bodies. This type of amoeba is important for the survival of certain types of plants and can be used to identify which plants are healthy or diseased.
