Answer:

Cohesion

Step-by-step explanation:

D. you're welcome

One of water's most distinctive properties is cohesion—that is, the tendency of water molecules to "stick" to one another. In plants, this cohesion results in columns of water that stretch through the plant's xylem (the vascular tissue responsible for the transport of water), from the roots all the way to the leaves.
