Question

the cohesion and adhesion displayed by water... makes capillary action possible. allows water to carry and move energy. makes water a good evaporative coolant. allows water to move into and remain in small spaces.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Cohesion (water - water attraction) and adhesion (water - surface attraction) enable capillary action, where water moves in narrow spaces against gravity. They also allow water to enter and stay in small spaces. Water's ability to carry and move energy is related to its high specific - heat capacity, not cohesion and adhesion. Water being a good evaporative coolant is due to high heat of vaporization.

Answer:

A. Makes capillary action possible.
D. Allows water to move into and remain in small spaces.
