Plants rely on salinity (among other things) to aide in the uptake of water. The water within a plants cells is by definition saltier than the fresh water outside. It is precisely this mechanic that prevents terrestrial plants from growing in salt water. The water itself is saltier than the plants cells, leading to water moving away from the plant (in fact through its retention mechanisms). The result is what we may call a "burned" plant, in reality, it is dehydrated, even though it may be floating in a sea of water. In this case, the fresh water is all to willing to mix with saltwater. Find me some verses in the quran which predict a discovery. I like my miracles to be miraculous, not disingenuous.
