Describe the structures of Chlamydomonas and Volvox and contrast how they reproduce?

Chlamydomonas are single-celled organism with 2 apical flagella which are absorbed before cell division. Volvox are multicellular organisms that have 2 cell types. They are composed of about 2000 somatic cells that resemble Chlamydomonas and form a spherical shell that also moves the organism using the flagella. Inside the shell resides gonidia which can divide to form a new organism. Also, the somatic cells that resemble Chlamydomonas can not divide like Chlamydomonas, thus the importance of the gonidia.

Is extra water an advantage in a cell?

If the cell had only a slightly higher concentration of water, this would probably be considered more of a disadvantage because water is highly damaging to DNA. Having extra water could burst the cell depending on the concentration. In face, if you take sheep's blood, and dilute it with water and view under the microscope, you can see the cells lysing. Thus, having extra water is not an advantage to the cell.
