Answer: A
Mangrove swamps are found along tropical and subtropical coastlines.
Mangroves are salt-tolerant trees and shrubs of the intertidal zone, roughly between latitudes 30° N and 30° S. They need warm water and air (they do not survive frost), and grow best on sheltered, muddy shores, estuaries and deltas, such as the Sundarbans of the Ganga-Brahmaputra delta.
Rocky, exposed coastlines lack the soft sediment their roots need. Temperate and arctic coasts are too cold, and there salt marshes occupy the equivalent intertidal niche.
