Answer:

increase

Explanation:

Increase in salinity is caused by the addition of salts such as NaCl to water. Ionic compounds like salts ionize in water to form cations and anions such as,

NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻

The cation gets attracted to the negative electrode and the anion gets attracted to the positive electrode. Electrons released in the ionization of the atoms to form ions is responsible for generating electricity as electricity is simply the flow of electrons across a potential difference.

OK so when salinity increases it leads to an increase in electrical conductivity.

Which machine is the least simple? a bike a screw an inclined plane a lever

Ivenika [448]

Answer: A bike

A bike is composed of various simple machines. It has a wheel and axle as one component, and it also has screws to hold the various parts together, along with levers and pulleys that are connected to the pedals. So all of these simple machine concepts work together to help transport the rider from point A to point B.

The other answer choices of screw, inclined plane, and lever, are fairly simple machines that don't have many things going on at once compared to a bike.
