B.) Cohesion

Explanation:

The best term that fits the description of the term surface tension of water is cohesion.

Cohesion is the intermolecular forces that holds together the particles of liquids and solids.

  • Surface tension is a phenomenon in liquids that causes them to come together more and shrink on the surface.
  • Surface tension is made possible by cohesive forces between water- water molecules.
  • Adhesion is between different molecules like water and glass.
  • In capillary action, a liquid is able to rise up in a column
  • Sublimation is a phase change from solid to gas.

Answer:

C. Cholesterol

Explanation:

Cholesterol maintains the fluidity of the cell membrane and thereby, regulates its function.

Bile acids are derived from cholesterol which serves as their precursor. For example, Taurocholic acid is a polar derivative of cholesterol. Bile acids serve in the absorption of fatty acids, glycerol, and fat-soluble vitamins as these compounds are non-polar in nature.  

Vitamin D is produced when the derivative of cholesterol, 7-dehydrocholesterol undergoes photolysis in skin cells in presence of sunlight.
