Explanation:

River mouths are areas where rivers meet larger bodies of water like oceans or seas. They are often rich in nutrients which support a wide - variety of plant and animal life, leading to increased species diversity. Water in river mouths is usually not clearer with high oxygen levels as they can be influenced by sediment and nutrient runoff.
