Ecosystem services supported by the estuarine environment include all of the following except: A. biological habitat. B. trapping pollution. C. groundwater supply. D. storm buffering. E. marinas.

Option (E)

Explanation:

The estuarine environment is usually referred to that region where there occurs constant mixing of the fresh and saline water. It can also be simply said as the meeting point of the freshwater and saline water. It is mainly comprised of fine-grained sediments such as clay, silt and fine sand, which are transported from both the sea and the rivers.

It also includes the biological habitat as there occurs different species of organisms in this environment. Pollution also occurs in this region, and the supply of groundwater also takes place here. Storm is common in this region when the weather is not favorable.

The marinas are not included as it covers the vast oceans and the deep-sea environment, and which is not a part of the estuarine ecosystem.

Thus, the correct answer is option (E).

E. marinas.
