Salt kills freshwater hydra primarily through osmosis, where water moves out of the hydra's cells to balance the higher salt concentration in the surrounding environment. This process leads to dehydration and cellular damage, ultimately causing the hydra to lose its turgor pressure and die. Additionally, the salt can disrupt the hydra's internal ionic balance, further contributing to its demise.
