1/32 of the original amount.

Explanation:

Each half-life is half of the prior life so:

Protists represent a separate kingdom of eukaryotic organisms (ie., organisms whose cells have a nucleus). The most important features of protists include: 1- they are unicellular organisms, 2-contain mitochondria, 3-can be parasites, and 4-generally live in optimal conditions in moist or aquatic environments. In the past, protists were divided into Protozoa (animal-like organisms) and Protophyta (plant-like organisms), which nowadays we know are heterotrophic (also often parasitic) and photosynthetic protists, respectively.

Boiling of water is an endothermic process because during this process water absorbs heat , its kinetic energy increases and then it boils.
