Answer:

Adhesion and cohesion are water properties that affect every water molecule on Earth and also the interaction of water molecules with molecules of other substances. Essentially, cohesion and adhesion are the "stickiness" that water molecules have for each other and for other substances. Credit: J. Schmidt, National Park Service

Answer:

<h2><u>The water is transported to the top most leaves (and rest of its parts) of a tall tree by three actions: </u></h2><h2><u> </u></h2><h2><u>1) root pressure (osmosis) </u></h2><h2><u> </u></h2><h2><u>2) capillary action (adhesion) </u></h2><h2><u> </u></h2><h2><u>3) evapotranspiration (cohesion)</u></h2>

<u></u>

(Also Capillary action & osmotic pressure can play a key role in this)

<em>The two other properties are:</em>

<h2><u> Adhesion and Cohesion</u></h2><h2><u></u></h2>
