Surface tension is a result of cohesive forces. So, cohesion may be the suitable answer.

Yadav g said:   8 years ago
I think cohesion is the correct answer.

Avtar Singh said:   8 years ago
Yes, surface tension includes fluids cohesive forces, Cohesion is the property in which liquid molecules attract each other and remain a continuous mass. So true answer is surface tension.
