What is a shallow water body separated from the sea by a sand bar called?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Lagoon

The correct answer is A, lagoon. A lagoon is a shallow coastal water body separated from the open sea by a sand bar, spit, barrier island, or another depositional ridge. The barrier does not always block all water exchange; a narrow opening may allow limited movement between the lagoon and the sea. The important clues are shallow water, a coastal location, and separation by deposited sand. B, a cirque, is a bowl-shaped hollow carved by a glacier in a mountain. C, a floodplain is relatively flat land beside a river that may be covered during floods. D, loess is wind-deposited fine silt, not a water body. Memory cue: lagoon means a sheltered shallow water body behind a coastal barrier.
