Answer:
Explanation:
i. Damming of rivers affects the natural flow causing poor sediment flow and excessive sedimentation at the bottom of the reservoir.
ii. Lack of sediment results in rockier stream bed and poorer habitat for the river's aquatic life.
iii. Dams also fragment rivers, making it difficult for aquatic fauna to migrate, especially for spawning.
iv. The reservoirs submerge the existing vegetation and soil, leading to its decomposition over time.
v. Construction of dams also faces resistance because of large scale displacement of local communities.
