A swamp is an area of a land that is permanently filled with water. It could be formed out from a former lake or pond overtaken by trees. It is also dominated by trees. Cypress and tupelo trees, bushes and shrubs grow in swamps and even tiny plants like the duckweed that almost covers the water surface.
A river is a large area where water flows to the ocean, the lake, etc. and its seawater consistently evaporates. Its source could be from a melting snow, a melting glacier, a lake with an out-flowing stream or a spring bubbling out of the ground.

Two reasons for the difference:
1. Swamps have many formed marine animals and insects while the river, you can only rarely find one (like fishes).
2. Rivers could be a source of water into houses, farms and even a drinking water for humans while swamps could not be a source for those.

bonufazy [111]

The answer is; C & E

Building a dam alters the water regime down the dam. The dam also affects fish migration along the river, alters the transportation of sediments by the river downstream, and changes temperatures within the local environment of the dam. These changes, however, the subtle effect the ecosystem around the dam and down the river. The potential energy of the water held by the dam is, however, high and used to produce more electricity.
