Solution

  • A dam is a structure placed across a river or stream to keep water from flowing downstream.
  • When a dam bursts, the water held behind it, rushes downstream and causes floods.
  • A tremendous amount of water is released suddenly, flooding communities near the dam and causing significant loss of life and property.
