Estuaries is a water body where freshwater from rivers and streams combines with salt water that is coming from the ocean.

Explanation:

Estuaries is a type of water body that is partially enclosed present at the coastal side where freshwater from rivers and streams combines with salt water that is coming from the ocean. Shallow estuary waters create unique habitats for organisms living there because the presence of brackish water refers to the mixture of fresh water draining from the land and salty seawater. The salinity in water change as you move from inland areas out towards the ocean because the water of inland has less salt in it while water of ocean has huge amount of salt present in it so when we move from inland to the ocean salt concentration increases in it. estuaries provide protection for inland areas by filtering pollutants, prevent shoreline erosion, flooding and storm.

the dna molecules have a negative charge because of the phosphate groups in their sugar-phosphate backbone, so they start moving through the matrix of the gel towards the positive pole. power is turned on and dna fragments migrate through gel (towards the positive electrode).
