A body of water enclosed between river mouth and sea salt water is :
Answer: A
The water body is an Estuary.
An estuary is the partly enclosed coastal water at the mouth of a river where fresh river water meets and mixes with salt sea water, giving brackish conditions and strong tidal influence. Estuaries trap nutrients and sediments, support mangroves and are nursery grounds for many fish, as at the Hooghly and the Narmada mouths.
A coast is the land along the sea, and a river bank is the land along a river, neither a body of water. Lakes are inland water bodies, usually fresh, not open to the tides.
