Answer to Question 1

An estuary is an area where freshwater meets and mixes with saltwater. Estuaries have varying degrees of salinity,
depth, and temperature. They serve as a very important breeding area and provide safety to many forms of marine
life. The most common marine life in an estuary are oysters, clams, lobsters, crabs, and shrimp.



Answer to Question 2

Modern whaling techniques consist of a factory ship to process the whale meat, a fleet of catcher boats to locate
and kill the whales, and buoy boats to bring the whales back to the factory ship.
