NEET (UG) 2023 — Question 168

Match List I with List II :

List I	List II
A. Cohesion	I. More attraction in liquid phase
B. Adhesion	II. Mutual attraction among water molecules
C. Surface tension	III. Water loss in liquid phase
D. Guttation	IV. Attraction towards polar surfaces

Cohesion represents mutual attraction between water molecules. Adhesion represents attraction

of water molecules to polar surfaces Surface tension represents water molecules are attracted to

each other in the liquid phase more than to water in the gas phase. Guttation represent loss of

water in liquid phase. Thus, option (4) is correct.
