Biology , ! water moderate the climate around large bodies of water. as a result, the temperatures in these areas are milder that inland where the temperatures are more extreme. this is due to water’s a.) mass b.) polar structure c.) high heat capacity d.) low surface tension

Water is great at moderating climate due to its high heat capacity. Water absorbs heat on hot days to cool the air temperature above it and releases heat at night to warm the air above it. This helps to keep the temperatures more mild and not so extreme.

estuaries are the partially enclosed coastal bodies of brackish water formed at the mouth of sea where river meets an ocean. it is a transition zone between river and sea water so estuaries are influenced to both marine environment such as tides, waves and to riverine such as flow of fresh water and sediments. the mixing of sea and fresh water provide high level of nutrients, making estuaries a high product habitats.

many estuaries suffers degradation from a variety of human activities like erosion from deforestation, overgrazing, overfishing, drainage and eutrophication.

so from the above statement answers will be

1. false as estuaries are formed due to both brackish and freshwater.

2.true, due to high productivity estuaries are breeding ground for many marine species.

3. direct and indirect activities of man that contribute to pollution and deposition of sediments.

your answer would be a, maximum exploitation of resources.
