The correct option is E Halophytes
A halophyte is a plant that grown in waters of high salinity, coming into contact with saline water through its roots or by salt spray, such as in saline semi-deserts, mangrove swamps, marshes and sloughs and sea shores. Halophytes prefer saline soils with high concentration of NaCl2, MgSO4 and MgCl2.
