The table below shows salinity tests from coastal Louisiana following a salt water influx during hurricanes Katrina and Rita. If efforts are not made to reduce the salinity in these areas, what is the most likely long term effect? A growth in the population of salt-intolerant types of plants
A shift in species composition to less salt-tolerant plants
A shift in species composition to more salt-tolerant plants
An increase in the diversity of salt-intolerant plants

i believe its C

Explanation:

more salinity means the ecosystem has to adapt to be more tolerant of salt, so that excludes A and D. Evolution is the kind of thing that takes time, so when life has to adapt it isn't overnight, so this leads me to choosing C, because over time the species in the area will adapt to become more tolerant in salt.

It is C  A shift in species composition to more salt-tolerant plants

Explanation:

I took the test, and got it correct :)

the cost of mining is extremely low compared to the money earned from mining, creating income to improve the environment.
