Mud is a liquid or semi-liquid mixture of water and another combination of clay, silt, and soil. Very long of mud deposit freeze over geological time to siltstone. When geological deposits of mud were formed in mouth of river into which the tide flow the resultant layers are term bay mud. Mud is similar to dung, except in that that mud lacks significant quantities of humus and often contains higher proportions of sand.
Mud can provide a comfortable home for numerous types of animals, including varieties of crabs, frogs, snails, and crayfish. We can find black crabs on the mud among the marsh grass at low tide. We’ll probably see the male’s of black crabs, yellow pincer which has little other use than as a display during courtship. The females one, have dark pincers of equal size.
Other animals, such as elephants & pigs, bath in mud or to cool off and protect themselves from the sun.
In the construction industry, mud refers to wet plaster, stucco, or cement.
Mud is a slimy gooey mud that mixtured by rains and clays plus a soil.

Wikipedia, (2007) Water, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water Accessed on 4/5/07
Remember you needed at least 3 resources.
It's a pity that you didn't fix this and add your bibliography. I can only give you 6/10.
