  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
