The Effect of Salinity on Growth
Title: The Effect of Salinity on Growth and Chlorophyll Content in Representative Classes of Unicellular Marine Algae.
Significant Findings, Questions and Observations: The purpose of this study was to determine if there was a general relationship between the relative amount of chlorophyll per cell and growth at various salinities in unicellular marine algae. Salinity is an important and critical ecological component to a marine environment and habitat, specially those inland. Through out this study growth …showed first 75 words of 238 total…

…showed last 75 words of 238 total…at lower salinity levels and that two of the organisms looked at showed salinity optima. A possible reason for organisms showing resistance to salinity levels may be due to the organism being osmotically adaptive to the environment. However, this trend was only noted in water with a salinity less than full strength seawater. Finally, the report suggests and describes that salinity is an important factor in controlling the distribution of organisms in the marine environment.
