Options

  1. AA-II, B-I, C-IV, D-III
  2. BA-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
  3. CA-IV, B-III, C-II, D-I
  4. DA-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II

Correct answer

B. A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III

Step-by-step solution

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.
