it's due to something called osmosis. If you have salty water on one side of a permeable membrane and less salty water on the other - then nature will try to balance this out by moving water through the barries to dilute the salty water.
Saltwater is denser than regular water because the addition of salt molecules increases the mass of the water, making it heavier. This increased mass results in a higher density of saltwater compared to freshwater.
The term for water that is a mixture of freshwater and saltwater is "brackish water."
In a basic saltwater solution, the water molecules would be the solvent and the salt molecules would be the solute.
An egg sinks in regular water because it is more dense than water. When salt is added to water, it increases the water's density, making the egg less dense than the saltwater and causing it to float.
No. Pure water is a compound, which is a pure substance. A saltwater solution is a mixture of water and salt, and is not a pure substance.
Plants typically grow better in sugar water rather than saltwater. Sugar water provides plants with carbohydrates they can use for energy, while saltwater can dehydrate and damage plant cells due to its high salt concentration. Saltwater also interferes with the plant's ability to absorb nutrients and water from the soil.

Yes. When you put salty water in your stomach, osmotic pressure begins drawing water out of your body to try to dilute the salt in your stomach. Eventually, you dehydrate and die.
Yes salt water can kill vines and other types of plants. To kill a vine with salt water, feed the vine with saltwater instead of regular water.
The word you are looking for is "dehydrate."
If you ever run into a situation where you don't have anymore clean water to drink, there are ways to sanitize your own water for drinking like boiling it. You should find a stream or body of water around where you are, but avoid saltwater, because it will only dehydrate you more.
You dehydrate.

If you don't drink enough water you will dehydrate and get headaches. If you don't drink enough water you will dehydrate and get headaches.
Approximately 97% of Earth's water is saltwater found in oceans and seas.
