A stye is an infection of an oil gland in the eyelid. It produces a red, swollen, painful lump on the edge or inside surface of the eyelid. Styes usually occur closer to the surface of the eyelid than do chalazia.
The most abundant salts in the ocean are chlorine, sodium, magnesium, sulfur, calcium, and potassium. Ocean salinity is affected by multiple factors including ice melt, inflow of river water, evaporation, precipitation, wind, wave motion, and ocean currents.
After hydrogen and oxygen, the two most abundant or common elements dissolved in seawater are sodium and chloride, which combine to form salt. The salinity of seawater is measured by grams of salt per liter of water, with a typical reading of approximately 35 grams per liter, or 35 percent.
