How long can mermaids breath for?
Mermaids, as mythical creatures, are often depicted as having the ability to breathe underwater, similar to fish. In various stories and folklore, they can typically remain submerged for extended periods, sometimes indefinitely, thanks to their aquatic gills or other adaptations. However, the specifics can vary widely depending on the particular legend or interpretation. Ultimately, their breathing capabilities are a product of fantasy rather than reality.
Since their posterior portions are typically depicted as fish-like, one would presume they eliminate similar to fish, so perhaps some research on fish digestion and elimination is in order. Since they are half fish, and a fish's anus (or it could be a cloaca instead) is about 1/4 the way to their tail, then that should be where they eliminate, and preferably into the sea.
That said, there are no real mermaids. They are all fiction.
The good thing about imaginary creatures is that you don't have to do al the detailed engineering to show how they work. No one cares about the impact of square and cube laws on giants, the wingspan of flying horses, or the creation and loss of mass as Alice of ALice in Wonderland grew and shrank. An example of what happens when the engineers get turned loose on this type of question is shown in Larry Niven's "Man of Steel, Woman of Kleenex."

How can you prove mermaids aren't real?
This runs into the problem of trying to prove something doesn't exist. The only way to prove a negative statement like this is to do an exhaustive search of the universe and this is obviously unfeasible. Same thing goes for "How do you know God doesn't exist".
However, there is compelling evidence for their nonexistence. All "evidence" of mermaids has been found either to be misinterpretation of normal creatures and phenomena, or deliberately faked. Additionally, looking at the course of evolutionary history it would be impossible for a creature to be half human and half fish.
Yes. I know the history of where they are from. They come from stories/myths of the ancient Celts to explain events they didn't understand. Mermaids do not exist and are make Believe.

What are the names of the evil eeal on little mermaid?
Ursula the Sea Witch
Half woman, half octopus, Ursula is a sea witch who has been banished from King Triton's palace... presumably for being conniving, evil, and generally unpleasant. She's waiting for the chance to have her revenge.
She uses Ariel for her own underhanded purposes: She gives the princess human legs, taking her voice as payment. She gives Ariel three days to make Prince Eric fall in love with her; if Ariel fails, she'll turn back into a mermaid and becomes Ursula's property.
Ursula has no intention of letting Ariel succeed, of course.
Ursula also has 2 eel henchmen who do her bidding, whom try to prevent Ariel and the Prince from getting together.
