Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An estuary is an area where freshwater and saltwater mix, creating brackish water. The high nutrient concentration in estuaries is due to the mixing of nutrients from both the land and sea. Estuaries are often shallow and receive a lot of sunlight, making it an ideal environment for photosynthesis. However, immature animals may not thrive in this type of environment, so a low percentage of immature animals would not be a characteristic of an estuary.
