Answer 3

Here's a really nice (and short) video of a Paramecium feeding: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4aZE5FQ284

You can see the "mouth" in the centre of the cell and the food vacuole filling and then being pinched off.

@mayankdevnani Cilia are involved in feeding, but I wouldn't say they're used to capture food, per se. It's more that the beating of the oral cilia is used to transport food items (e.g. bacteria) into the cytostome (mouth).
