The document discusses an experiment on the effect of different salt concentrations on yeast cell growth. Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast cells were exposed to solutions with salt concentrations ranging from 0.3g to 1.5g. Optical density measurements found that after 24 hours, yeast density increased in all samples, contradicting the hypothesis that high salt would inhibit growth. This suggests yeast have a higher salt tolerance than expected and can tolerate salt quantities thought to be harmful. Repeating the experiment with even higher salt levels could help determine the threshold where growth is reduced.
