For one thing, there's lots more of it. There are many more environmental niches to be occupied in salt-water bodies, and importantly, they're all connected, making it easier for species to migrate and adapt to new habitats. Conversely, fresh-water habitats are often more isolated, confining species to a single habitat and decreasing the likelihood that they'll be able to migrate and adapt.

How does the process of desalination work in a salt water still to produce fresh water?
Desalination is the process of removing salt and other impurities from saltwater to produce fresh water. In a saltwater still, the saltwater is heated, causing it to evaporate and leave the salt behind. The vapor is then condensed back into liquid form, resulting in fresh water that is free of salt.
How do you firgure head pressure for salt water?
To calculate head pressure in saltwater, you need to consider the density of the saltwater as it will be greater than that of fresh water. Use the formula: head pressure = (density of saltwater x gravitational acceleration x height of water column). Take into account the specific density of the saltwater at the given location for accurate calculations.
Which environment has the greater concentration of dissolved oxygen salt water or fresh water?
Freshwater typically has a greater concentration of dissolved oxygen compared to saltwater because oxygen dissolves more easily in freshwater due to its lower salinity. Ocean water is less oxygenated because it has a higher concentration of salts, which can make it more challenging for oxygen to dissolve.
What kind of microbes are present in fresh and salt water?
Fresh water contains a variety of microbes such as bacteria, algae, and protozoa. Salt water also harbors bacteria and algae, but tends to have a higher diversity of microbes including archaea and certain types of fungi due to its higher salinity level.
How do tsunami waves affect soil and supply fresh water?
Tsunami waves can erode soil by carrying away top layers and depositing salt which can affect fertility. They can also contaminate fresh water sources by introducing saltwater, harming marine life and disrupting water treatment systems. Flooding from tsunamis can lead to saltwater intrusion in groundwater reservoirs, further affecting fresh water supply.
Why is it easier to float in saltwater than in fresh water then in fresh water?
Because salt is dense, so denser the water the better you float!
What is the difference between saltwater and rainwater?
Rain water is fresh water and does not have salt. Saltwater is not fresh and does have salt.
Is saltwater a solution or solute?
Saltwater is a solution because you can get fresh water and some salt and mix it and then you get saltwater.

What is the ratio of saltwater to fresh water?
About 97% of the earth's water is saltwater, the the remaining 3% is freshwater.
Do goldfish line longer in salt water or fresh water?
There are both saltwater and fresh water goldfish so it doesnt really matter which. Saltwater ones can't live in fresh water and vice versa.
Why is the diversity of living things in salt water greater than fresh water?
For one thing, there's lots more of it. There are many more environmental niches to be occupied in salt-water bodies, and importantly, they're all connected, making it easier for species to migrate and adapt to new habitats. Conversely, fresh-water habitats are often more isolated, confining species to a single habitat and decreasing the likelihood that they'll be able to migrate and adapt.
How is saltwater the same as fresh water?
no it is not the same
Can saltwater snails live in fresh water?
NO they can not.
