Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -The force of cohesion is defined as the force of attraction between molecules of the same substance. The force of adhesion is defined as the force of attraction between different substances, such as glass and water.

Detailed explanation-3: -What is the adhesion of water? Adhesion is the property of molecules of different substances to stick with each other when brought in contact. For example, water can form molecular bonds with molecules of other substances. Capillary action and meniscus are two effects that explain adhesion property in water.
