      A Surface tension Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Capillarity Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Infiltration Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Capillary fringe Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Surface tension, resulting from the cohesion of water molecules, allows water to climb the walls of a narrow tube. The narrower the tube or soil pore, the higher the water will rise against gravity.
