Water is a polar molecule that exhibits the properties of adhesion and cohesion. Identify the examples as either cohesion, adhesion, or both. Cohesion Both cohesion and adhesion Adhesion Water forms drops of rain in the air as a result of surface tension. Blood flows up a narrow tube as a nurse Water sticks to the cell walls of plants. collects a blood sample. Water forms into a drop on a leaf and hangs down, but it does not drop.
