What is the relationship between the salinity and density of ocean water?

A decrease in salinity increases the density of seawater, altering the location of the halocline.

As salinity increases, the mass of the water increases as it holds more salt particles per unit volume, making it more dense.

An increase in salinity decreases the density of water above the halocline and increases the density of water below the halocline.

As salinity decreases, the water becomes more massive as it holds fewer salt particles per unit volume, making it less dense.

Animal bodies (and even plant bodies for that matter) are complex enough that life couldn't exist without enzymes. enzymes are usually large, complex biological catalysts that are expensive to make. enzymes speed up the rate of chemical reactions without being used up during the reaction (they can be reused many times). they are highly specific in the reactions they regulate. knowing what enzymes are and how they function, why does this explain why complex life forms could not exist if there were no enzymes.
