Here are three adaptations of halophytes: They have salt glands* on their leaves to excrete excess salt. They can accumulate salt in specific tissues* (e.g., old leaves) and then shed those leaves to remove the salt.

Some have specialized root systems* that prevent the uptake of excessive salt. 3 done, 2 left today. You're making progress.
