Which of the following is not a human use of wetlands?

Answer
A
petroleum exploration
B
recreational boating
C

D
shipping waterway

Explanation

Wetlands support many human activities, including petroleum exploration, recreational boating, and transportation by waterway. They also provide important nursery habitat for juvenile fish, but that is an ecological function rather than a human use. Therefore, “juvenile fish nursery” is the choice that is not a human use of wetlands.
