Well there may be more than two. The rivers flow into the sea, thus diluting the salt, but salt carried by the river will increase the salt content. Salt may be removed by precipitation, but only if the concentration becomes great.
The average salinity of seawater is about 35 parts per thousand or 3.5%.
The average concentration of salt in seawater is around 35 grams per liter. This means there are approximately 35 grams of salt in a liter of seawater.

Induction salinometers measure the electrical conductivity of seawater. At a fixed temperature, the conductivity is approximately linearly proportional to salt concentration. The nature of the salt makes a difference, and sea salt composition varies somewhat around the world. For chemical solutions other than seawater, conductivity generally increases with increasing concentration, but the factor relating conductivity to concentration depends upon the composition of the solution. For a given concentration of salt near room temperature, conductivity increases about 2% for each degree Celsius of temperature increase because the viscosity of water decreases as the temperature rises. For solutions of strong acids, the temperature coefficient is nearer 1%/ degree. (The mechanism of conductivity in strong acid solutions differs from that in salt solutions.) Temperature coefficients are smaller at elevated temperatures. Weird nonlinearities occur in aqueous solutions below 4 degrees C, as the water begins to freeze. The temperature coefficient of seawater also depends slightly on the composition of the seawater. Commercial induction salinometers which calculate temperature corrections assume some standard composition of seawater, such as that found in Copenhagen bay. This may yield errors for seawater which has been concentrated by solar evaporation, such as in the Red Sea, or seawater which has been diluted by river water or ice melt.
3.5 percent salt and 97.5 is water.
On average, seawater contains about 35 grams of dissolved salt per liter. This concentration can vary depending on location and environmental factors.
The cup of seawater has more salt, but the concentration, that is, the amount that it is diluted, is exactly the same.

This depends on salt concentration; however it ranges roughly from 1.0 (low) to 1.6 g/mL at high concentration. Seawater 1.02 - 1.03
Water with a salt concentration of about 3.5% is typically found in seawater.

The average salinity of seawater is about 3.5%, which means that approximately 35 grams of salt are dissolved in 1,000 grams of seawater. This salinity can vary slightly depending on location and other factors.

Seawater has certain salt in it, in your cell you have an area of high concentration and there is an area of low concentration outside the cell causing the water inside the cell to leave (this process is hypertonic). Making the cell basically die...technically, the salt inside that water can actually dehydrate you instead of keep you alive, so you would die.
