well, it's a plant, so photosynthesis is one of its adaptations. also, you can eat it. :)
Irish moss is a species of red algae that doesn't "eat" in the way animals do. Instead, it obtains nutrients through photosynthesis, where it uses sunlight to convert carbon dioxide into food. It also absorbs minerals and other compounds from the water around it for growth and development.
Chondrus crispus( Irish moss) undergoes an alternation of generation life cycle common in many species of algae . There are two distinct stages: the sexual haploid gametophyte stage and the asexual diploid sporophyte stage. In addition there is a third stage- the carposporophyte, which is formed on the female gametophyte after fertilization. The male and female gametophytes produce gametes which fuse to form a diploid carposporophyte, which forms carpospores, which develops into the sporophyte. The sporophyte then undergoes meiosis to produce haploid tetraspores (which can be male or female) that develop into gametophytes. The three stages (male, female and sporophyte) are difficult to distinguish when they are not fertile; however, the gametophytes often show a blue iridescence

Yes, Irish moss can go bad. You can tell if it has expired by checking for any signs of mold, discoloration, or a foul smell. Expired Irish moss may also have a slimy texture and a bitter taste. It is best to discard it if you suspect it has gone bad.
Whirlfloc and Irish Moss are both used in brewing to clarify beer by helping proteins and other particles settle out. Whirlfloc is a more concentrated form of Irish Moss, so it is generally more effective at clarifying beer. Additionally, Whirlfloc works faster than Irish Moss, making it a popular choice for many brewers.

Irish moss should be added during the last 15 minutes of the brewing process to help clarify the beer by removing proteins and other particles.
