Wetlands provide habitat for a wide range of plant and animal species, regulate water flow and prevent flooding, and protect coastlines from erosion.

Bogs, marshes, and swamps are all types of wetlands. Deserts are not wetlands because they are not characterized by the presence of water.

Mangroves provide habitat for a wide range of marine and terrestrial species, protect coastlines from erosion and storm surges, and filter pollutants from water.

Red mangrove, black mangrove, and white mangrove are all types of mangroves. Oak trees are not mangroves because they are not salt-tolerant.

Pollution, climate change, and habitat destruction are all major threats to wetlands and mangroves.

Reducing pollution, mitigating climate change, and restoring degraded wetlands and mangroves are all important steps that can be taken to protect these valuable ecosystems.

Wetlands and mangroves provide a wide range of benefits to humans, including habitat for a wide range of plant and animal species, regulation of water flow and prevention of flooding, protection of coastlines from erosion, and filtration of pollutants from water.

Bogs, marshes, and swamps are all examples of wetlands.

Red mangrove, black mangrove, and white mangrove are all examples of mangroves.

Human activities, such as agriculture, development, and pollution, are the main cause of habitat destruction for wetlands and mangroves.

Industrial waste, agricultural runoff, and sewage discharge are all major sources of pollution in wetlands and mangroves.

Burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and agriculture are all major contributors to climate change.

Sea level rise, increased storm intensity, and changes in precipitation patterns are all effects of climate change that can have a negative impact on wetlands and mangroves.

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions, restoring degraded wetlands and mangroves, and protecting existing wetlands and mangroves are all important steps that can be taken to mitigate the effects of climate change on these valuable ecosystems.
