Read the following statements carefully and choose the correct option.

A: Cohesion, adhesion and surface tension are responsible for providing high tensile strength and high capillarity to water.

B: In plants, capillarity is aided by the small diameter of the tracheary elements.

Cohesion, adhesion and surface tension give water high tensile strength, i.e., an ability to resist a pulling force, and high capillarity, i.e., the ability to rise in thin tubes. In plants capillarity is aided by the small diameter of the tracheary elements – the tracheids and vessel elements.
