The correct answer is: A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
Cohesion
  • This is the mutual attraction between water molecules. This happens due to the presence of polar bond and polar interaction.
Adhesion
  • When water molecule bonds with some other polar compound, like lignin of the xylem wall, this interaction is called adhesion.
Surface tension
  • Surface tension represents water molecules are attracted to each other in the liquid phase more than to water in the gas phase.
Guttation
  • The loss of impure water in the liquid droplet form from the hydathodes in some herbaceous plants is called guttation. This happens due to root pressure.
