A barrier constructed to hold back water and raise its level, forming a reservoir used to generate electricity or as a water supply is called as Dam...

Human made dams are very important in our modern world. They help people by reducing or preventing floods. During times of excess water flow, dams store water then they release water during times of low flow of natural water resources. ... The structure works to collect & store water to prevent the water from flowing away.

A dam can also be used to collect water or for storage of water which can be evenly distributed between locations. Dams generally serve the primary purpose of retaining water, while other structures such as floodgates or levees (also known as dikes) are used to manage or prevent water flow into specific land regions.

Answer:

Explanation:

a dam is a structure that forms a barrier across a river to regulate the flow of water.

When the water level increases they open gates in order to send out water. These dams allow us to store and not to drain water into oceans soon. A DAM is a barrier constructed to hold back water and raise its level, forming a reservoir used to generate electricity or as a water supply.

the reservoirs created behind many dams are used for fish breeding.

hope it helps!!!!
