Answer: Estuary

An estuary can be defined as an ecosystem where a fresh water source like stream of river get mixed with an ocean. The water in the estuary is brackish water. In estuaries, the water level and salinity rise and fall under the influence of oceanic tides, river flow and seasons. The oceanic tides creates the largest flow of saline water whereas, rivers creates largest flow of fresh water. During rainy season the rivers will flood the estuary with fresh water and in the dry season the estuary shrinks and becomes more saline. Therefore, estuary water varies in degrees of salinity.

What is a communicable disease chain? what steps can a nurse can take to break a link within the communicable disease chain?
Kaylis [27]
<span>A diseases may be classified as either communicable or non-communicable. Communicable diseases are caused by pathogens who inhabit a host, man (I'm not saying man is the only host or man is necessarily the final host; there could be many host) who in turn passes the disease to another. Pathogens are viral, bacterial, parasitic and fungal. There are several stages before the pathogen metamorphoses into a full-blown disease. The stages in which several events happen builds up before the pathogen affects the final host is called a communicable disease chain. There are six stages ( Pathogen, reservoir, portal of ext, mode of transmission, portal of entry and susceptible host) in the communicable disease chain but the step a nurse shouod take is 1. Destroy the second link (Reservoir) by thoroughly sanitizing the environment. Obviously, this is where the Pathogens live. If the reservoir is taken care of; there's no way they could infect the host.</span>
