The correct answer is - B. Dams disrupt the delicate ecology of an area.

They also contribute to the temperature of the water, and as the water is becoming more stagnant, it is getting warmer, thus effecting the organisms that are adopted to different temperature of the water. The breeding can also be restricted because some species only reproduce in certain places, and the dams often don't allow them to move there.
