The demand curve faced by a pure monopolist is of downward sloping in shape.
The pure monopolist's market situation differs from that of a competitive firm in that the monopolist's demand curve is downsloping, causing the marginal-revenue curve to lie below the demand curve. Like the competitive seller, the pure monopolist will maximize profit by equating marginal revenue and marginal cost. Barriers to entry may permit a monopolist to acquire economic profit even in the long run.
yes
A monopolistic competitor's demand curve is less elastic than apure competitor's which is less elastic than a pure monopolist's.
The supply curve of a pure monopolist is not well-defined like that of a competitive firm because a monopolist sets prices based on demand rather than producing a specific quantity at a given price. Instead of a typical upward-sloping supply curve, a monopolist determines the quantity to produce by equating marginal cost with marginal revenue, and then uses the demand curve to set the price. Consequently, the monopolist's pricing and output decisions are influenced by the market demand, leading to a downward-sloping demand curve rather than a distinct supply curve.

YES
The demand curve would be perfectly elastic.
the industry's demand curve is perfectly elastic
segregates its market into clearly definable groups of consumers with different elasticity of demand, and prevents buyers in one market segment from reselling to buyers in another market segment

A pure monopolist is a market structure in which a single firm dominates the industry and has significant control over the market supply and pricing. This firm is the sole provider of a particular product or service, facing no competition and having the ability to set prices at higher levels without losing customers.
Go in always the same distance with a loudspeaker and a pure tone arround the microphone and measure the microphone's output. You get a damping curve which is the directivity curve.
