Do some single-celled organisms have special structures to pump excess water?
The structure is called the contractile vacuole. It can pump water out of the cell when there is too much. This way, the excess water won't cause it the cell to burst. They can be found in both animal and plant cells.
How Do Unicellular Organisms Get Water?
Water just diffuses ( called osmosis ) across their cell membranes down it's concentration gradient. So much so that some single celled organisms need contractile vacuoles to get rid of the excess water so they do not become hypotonic in condition.
How does water aid the fertilization of some organisms?
Depending on the species, fertilization can occur internally or externally. Water aids the fertilization of some organisms because organisms that reproduce externally need water for fertilization to occur.
How does the deaths of organisms in the water lead to the death of more organisms?
If you mean organisms that live in water, then that will affect the ecosystem because some organisms won't have the dead organisms that they used to feed on, which will cause their death. On the other hand, if you mean the death of organisms that live on land in water, then that will affect the water, and will probably make it contaminated, which will cause the death of the organisms that drink the contaminated water.
What is the function of a contractile vacuole in some in some single-celled organisms?
Vacuoles can store many types of molecules, in particular essential substances that are potentially harmful if present in bulk in the cytoplasm The contractile vacuole stores excess water that enters into it and expels it out after a stage

What is necessary for soil conservation?
How you plant, what you plant, how you water, and how you harvest all affect the soil. Some methods result in excess erosion, while others conserve soil.
What are some methods organisms use to regulate internal temperature?
sweating

How do you get concentrated lemon juice from lemon?
There is a lot of excess water in juice from lemons. The juice has some of its water removed by various methods, so that you can add more lemon flavor using less liquid. Similar processes are used with orange juice to thicken it before it is frozen to keep it fresh.
What are the some methods to break water into elements?
A method of separation is electrolysis.
