1. Cyclops 2. A towel 3. A fish 4. An egg 5. A sponge

These are classic riddles that require lateral thinking to solve. They are not academic questions, but rather puzzles meant to stimulate the mind and provoke thought. Here's how each riddle is solved:1) The answer is a 'Cyclops'. In Greek mythology, a Cyclops is a giant with a single eye in the middle of his forehead. The 'ed one' could refer to the eye, and the 'others freeze too' could be a metaphor for the Cyclops being immobile.2) The answer is 'a towel'. A towel becomes more 'wet' (i.e., absorbent) as it dries because it absorbs the moisture from your skin.3) The answer is 'a fish'. A fish is missing its body (except for its head and tail), and it's not a snake.4) The answer is 'an egg'. The outer layer of an egg is removed (cooked), and then you eat the outside (shell) and discard the inside (yolk and white).5) The answer is 'a sponge'. A sponge has holes in its top, bottom, left, right, and middle, but it can still hold water.
