Correct Answer: Estuary


Solution : The correct option is Estuary .

A semi-enclosed coastal body of water known as an estuary has free access to the open sea, where freshwater from land drainage significantly dilutes seawater. The largest estuary on the Indian coast, covering the Sundarbans Gangetic Delta, the largest delta in the world and home to the country's mangrove vegetation, is the Hooghly-Matlah estuarine system, located in West Bengal.
