Does salinity affect cell division or cell enlargement?

Both. In Halophytes, growth is stimulated by low amounts of salt (equivalent to about 3000 ppm). If you had a lot of time on your hands and bothered to count each and every cell, you would find more cells. Also, you would find that the cells are, on average, larger. Mostly though, plants increase in size by cell enlargement.
