The definition of vestigial organs are rudimentary structures in humans that correspond to a functional structure or organ in an ancestor. Basically the answer is redundant organs present in an organism, which have been functional in the organism's ancestors.

Anon25 [30]
Water would move out of the cells of the microorganisms by osmosis and the cytoplasm would become dehydrated, killing the cells.
The brine is a hypertonic solution, thereby "pulling" the water out of the bacterial cells.

In response to high amounts of phosphate transport into the cell: a. PhoR is phosphorylated by the phosphate transporter protein
storchak [24]

Answer:

e. PhoU keeps PhoR bound to the phosphate transporter protein Pst

Explanation:

PhoU is a membrane protein known to regulate the transport of phosphate (Pi) between cellular compartments. It has been discovered that mutations in this protein cause lethality because the cell becomes incapable of controlling the intracellular levels of  Pi, this being toxic for the cell. PhoR is a histidine kinase/phosphatase. When the Pi level is considered to be a limiting factor, PhoR autophosphorylates at a histidine residue and then donates its phosphoryl group to PhoB. On the other hand, when the Pi level is high, this protein removes the phosphoryl group from phospho-PhoB. Finally, the Pst is a signal transduction protein that acts as a transporter capable of switching its conformation during the transport of PI.
