Certified Floodplain Manager (CFM) Practice Exam 2025 - Free CFM Practice Questions and Study Guide.

Natural and Beneficial Functions include the fertile environment for vegetation among floodplain functions. This option refers to the ecological functions of floodplains, such as providing nutrient-rich soil for plants to grow, which ultimately supports the growth and diversity of vegetation. This makes options A, B, and D incorrect as they do not specifically mention the function of floodplains in promoting vegetation growth. Option A refers to water resources, which can be found in floodplains but does not necessarily support vegetation growth. Option B mentions living resources, which may include plants, but does not specifically refer to the functions of floodplains. Option D refers to social resources, which are not directly related to the ecological functions of floodplains.
