What effects does salinity have on plants?
salinity causes plants to germinate quicker and then die at a much earlier date. apposed to a plant that is surviving onwater with a low content of water.
What is salinty?
Salinity refers to the amount of salt dissolved in a body of water. It is typically measured in parts per thousand (ppt) or practical salinity units (PSU). Salinity levels can have significant effects on the plants and animals that inhabit a particular ecosystem.
What level of salinity will plants not grow?
Plants grow in seawater e.g. mangroves. There are other flowering plants that grow in shallow seawater. Seawater is about 3.5 % salt. Water needs to be over 3.5 % salinity before plants cannot grow.
Does the salinity of the ocean affect the color of sea plants?
no, because they are amune to it
How do light and temperature effect life?
They effect ocean life. Temperature effects salinity, oxygen and new generation, body temperature of animals (2 degrees can stress some fishes to death) P.H. value effects lifes of plants and animals, under currents of the oceans
Which biome has a salinity of 005 percent or less?
The freshwater biome has a salinity of 0.05 percent or less, making it a low-salinity environment that is home to various species of plants and animals adapted to living in such conditions.
How does the removal of trees and native plants contribute to soil salinity?

How does the salinity content of soil affect the growth of plants and trees?
The growth of plants and trees is affected by a wide variety of variables. The salinity content of soil can affect the growth of most plants in a negative way, such as turning their leaves a dark green color and stunting their growth.
Are there varieties of plants that can grow in an environment with noted salinity?
yes, plants that are adapted to saline soils (such as coastal conditions) are called hallophytes
What is buoyancy and how does the salinity of water effects its buoyancy?
Buoyancy is the ability of an object to float in a fluid. The salinity of water affects buoyancy by increasing the density of the water. Higher salinity water is denser, which can increase the buoyant force on an object, making it easier for objects to float.
Why is non salty water better for irrigating crops?
Many plants does not support the salinity of the soil.
How does salinity affect plant growth?
Depends entirely upon the plant and the salinity - all plants have a small range of tolerance but different plant species have a very wide range and some plants are actually restricted to growing in positions which stand in sea-water. Numerically, there are far more species intolerant of salinity than there are that tolerate it.
