Paramecium needs oxygen for cellular respiration to produce energy. This energy is essential for carrying out various metabolic processes that help the paramecium survive and carry out its functions, such as movement and reproduction. Without oxygen, the paramecium would not be able to generate enough energy to sustain its biological activities.
The simple answer is osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water from a dilute solution to a more concentrated solution through a semi-permeable membrane*. Any animal in freshwater has a higher concentration of dissolved substances in its cells than the surrounding water. A Paramecium is enclosed by a semi-permeable cell membrane, which lets water in but prevents most dissolved substances leaking out. Under these conditions osmosis will occur and the cell will gain water. To prevent itself swelling up and bursting Paramecium has a contractile vacuole, a structure in the cell which fills up with water and periodically expells it back into the surroundings. * The semi-premeable membrane is also called partially permeable or selectively permeable, which all mean basically the same thing.
Freshwater Paramecium must have a contractile vacuole to regulate water intake and prevent cell lysis due to the hypotonic environment. In contrast, ocean-dwelling Paramecium face an isotonic environment that does not require active regulation of water intake or expulsion, therefore they do not need a contractile vacuole.
Like the Sponge and other organisms with undeveloped internal circulation mechanisms, the Paramecium relies on water movement through the paramecium's pores to serve as a method of internal circulation. The paramecium has no need for a more complex system because of its size, and relying on diffusion of nutrients through water and tidal movement is more energy effective
fooddddddddddddd!
The activity of the contractile vacoule would decrease. While in the hypotonic solution, water was moving into the paramecium because it had a higher solute concentration that the solution that it was in and water follows solute. So, the isotonic solution would contain the same solute concentration as the paramecium so there would be no net water movement. Therefore, the contractile vacoule would decrease in its activity because there would be no water entering or exiting the paramecium.
Paramecia live in water so they don't need to "get" it except by sucking some in if they happen to need any.

they don't need oxygen
Well, I would, just so the little guy wont have to beg for food or water. But if he tips it over, just remove it until he wants them.
Boiling water does not effectively remove minerals. While boiling can kill harmful bacteria and viruses, it does not remove minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and others. If you want to remove minerals from water, you would need to use a water filtration system or a process like reverse osmosis.
Water is not able to remove permanent markers - a special solvent would need to be used.
Plants and algae cells have chloroplasts, photosynthesis is conducted in chloroplasts. Paramecium do not photosynthesize they get their food from the water they live in. So they do not need chloroplasts.
Paramecium is single celled.
