The hypertonic habitats is home to saline protists which depend on salts for their survival.
Explanation:
Protists are a multicellular organism like the algae, don't from natural groups have invertebrates. They freely occupy the environment that contains liquid water.

Diatoms and other oozes are some of the most beautiful protists found to date, they are also home to corals and stick to the body of seafloors. As for long, they have adapted to the same type of conditions.
I think the one that can impact the climate of an area based on its geographical relief would be : B. Elevation
Mountain exist in a higher elevation lands and ocean exist on the lower elevation. The areas in higher elevation tend to have lower temperature compared to those in lower elevation
