Answer Posted / john mathew
Swamps are wetlands characterized by the presence of TREES
growing on silty to organic muck soils. They usually occur
along RIVER floodplains and in poorly drained basins.
Swamps are often inundated seasonally, or remain
continually flooded.
On the other hand, marshes are treeless wetland where lush
growths of herbaceous plants (eg, GRASSES, SEDGES, reeds
and CATTAILS) predominate.
An area having a wet, spongy, acidic substrate composed
chiefly of sphagnum moss and peat in which characteristic
shrubs and herbs and sometimes trees usually grow is called
bog.
