If the Brine Shrimp eggs were transported from a hyper saline lake from a less salty like, they would most likely go into their dormant state and become cyst-like since they are adapted to the salinity levels of their previous environment. In turn, they would not be able to hatch, and then later on, reproduce, in order to expand their population and continue their species.
