a. antibiotic resistance
b. habitat destruction
c. greater exposure to radiation
d. increase in biodiversity

The answer is B; habitat destruction

Option (B) is the correct option.

Explanation:

Size of a water conservation dam is very large. Therefore, construction of such a dam requires large area for its proper functioning.

As a result, some land has to be cleared off in order to build the dam. This will lead to habitat destruction.

Thus, we can conclude that habitat destruction would most likely be a new societal issue resulting from the installation of a dam.
