Organisms need energy to survive. Energy from the sun flows into and
out systems. This energy drives our world and the organisms in it.
Energy is lost “not destroyed” when it changes form. Flows Hot to Cold

– What range of tolerance do brine shrimp have for salt
water?
– Fill five clear cups ¾ full with water.
– Label cups No Salt, 30 milliliters, 60 milliliters, 90 milliliters,
120 milliliters. (1 tablespoon = 14.78 ml)
– Add correct amount of salt to each container.
– Use a popsicle stick or small spoon to add roughly the
same amount of eggs to each container. Swirl water to mix
eggs.
– Cover each container with plastic wrap and secure with
elastic band.
– Place in undisturbed area for three days.
– Observe each container to determine what salt level is their
range of tolerance.
