Answer:water moves out of the cell and it undergoes plasmolysis

Explanation:algae cells are plant cell.they have chlorophyll, carotenoids and phycobillins as their photosynthetic pigments.

They also possesses cellulose cell walls .

During osmosis,water moves from a region of low concentration of solute to a region of high concentration of solute.

In the above case,both the algae cell and it's surrounding solution has the same concentration of solute . however as solute is added to the solution it becomes more concentrated and water moves out of the algae cell .As the cell continues to lose water,the cell body pulls away from the cell wall causing a phenomenon called plasmolysis.

Assume that a certain prokaryote is shaped like a ball, lives deep under the water on the ocean floor, and consumes dead organis
natulia [17]
That prokaryote is <span>Psychrophile, a coccus and a decomposer.

1)The prokaryote is</span> shaped like a ball or generally has a round shape so it's called a coccus (Cocci in plural). This is one out of three terms, that are used to name bacteria. The other ones are bacillus and spiral. For example, Staphylococcus aureus is a bacteria that has a round shape but it's formed by more that one ball, that together look like a bunch of grapes.

2) This organism lives deep under the water, so it's named as a psychrophile or cryophile. This means they can live and reproduction at extremely low temperatures(-20ºC), and some places with those temperatures are the polar regions and the deep sea.

3) This prokaryote consumes dead organisms so it's classified as a decomposer.
Decomposers are organisms that can break down dead or decaying organisms. The process is an essential part of the nutrient cycle and is important for recycling the organic matter that occupies space in the biosphere.

How does our hearing decrease?
kow [346]

Tiny hair cells inside your inner ear help you hear. They pick up sound waves and change them into the nerve signals that the brain interprets as sound. Hearing loss occurs when the tiny hair cells are damaged or die. The hair cells DO NOT regrow, so most hearing loss caused by hair cell damage is permanent.
