Contrast salt water and fresh water?
Fresh and salt water are very different for one key reason, fresh water doesn't contain salt and salt water obviously does. There are different flora and fauna in fresh and salt water for this reason.
What happens when a marine clam is put in fresh water?
Salt water animals (save for the few that actually can live in either salt water or fresh water) can not survive in fresh water because their cells are isotonic to the salt water, but they would be highly hypertonic to the fresh water.That is to say, the concentration of salt within the organism's cells would be equal to the concentration of salt in the salt water, but would be far higher than the concentration of salt in the fresh water, and thus osmosis would be triggered, and the cells would "lyce" (when a cell lyces, it means it bursts due to an overabundant amount of water being forced into the cell)
What will happen when a plant is moved from a fresh water environment to a salt water environment?
Because substances move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration, the water would move either in or out of the cell. In the fresh water, there was a lower concentration inside the cell, so the water moved into the cell. In the salt water, there would be less water on the outside of the cell, so the water would move out of the cell.
How do you mix fresh water to make salt water?
just add salt to fresh water
Which is lighter fresh or salt water?
Fresh water (of the same temperature) has the lower density ('lighter').
What happens when fresh water cell is placed in salt water?

Dose a swimmer float better in fresh salt water or non fresh salt water?
on fresh salt water
Why would a fresh water cell expand and explode in salt water?
The cell absorbs water through its semipermeable membrane in order to make the ratio of salt particles to water particles equal in the cell and outside the cell. However, the increase in water in the cell makes it explode.
What is salt water and fresh water?
Salt water is water that has salt in it and it is found in oceans. Fresh water does not have salt and is found in rivers and lakes.
What would happen to a fresh water cell if placed into salt-water?
die..and its body will float on the surface
Is the Jordan river fresh water or salt water?
salt water
Does fresh water affect plant growth?
the salt water is in the soil than the roots will be waekned and it will die
How do objects float differently in salt water than in fresh water?
Objects float higher in salt water compared to fresh water because salt water is denser than fresh water. The higher density of salt water provides more buoyant force, causing objects to float higher. Additionally, salt water can also affect the rate at which objects sink or float due to changes in the water's viscosity and surface tension.
Salt water and fresh water difference?
