I think you just don’t give an amoeba much credit because it’s no multicellular organism. It’s genome is 100-200 times the size of the human. As it’s that big it seems like we haven’t sequenced all of it so we don’t know how many genes it has.
We also know very little about amoeba. Genetic analysis suggests that the do exchange genes with each other in some form but we don’t know how.
Amoeba probably express a lot of stuff phenotypically that we don’t yet understand.
Yes.
