Final answer:
An inland freshwater marsh is categorized as a Marsh, characterized by slow and steady water flow, unlike bogs or fens, and supports emergent vegetation.
Step-by-step explanation:
An inland freshwater marsh, such as Horicon Marsh in Wisconsin, would be categorized as a D) Marsh. Wetlands are environments where the soil is either permanently or periodically saturated with water.
Freshwater marshes, in contrast to other types of wetlands, like bogs or fens, are characterized by slow and steady water flow and are often found in flat areas where the water table is near or at the surface, supporting emergent vegetation.
Swamps are also characterized by slow water flow but are more heavily forested, while bogs develop in places where water flow is low or nonexistent, leading to stagnant water.
