Explanation:

- The dams' purpose is to manage and regulate water flow, primarily to prevent flooding.

- Control: This option is appropriate as it suggests managing or regulating something, which aligns with the function of dams regarding floods.

- Dominate: This implies overpowering or having a commanding influence over something, which doesn't fit well with the context of flood management.

- Reduce: This means to make something smaller or less in amount, which could be relevant but doesn't fully capture the intention behind dam construction.

- Resist: This means to fight against something actively, which isn't applicable to how dams work.
