Which property of water contributes to the formation of ocean waves and why? A .adhesive property - At the surface, the molecules wash up on the bench and are quickly absorbed by the sun; this loss of water initiates wave formation.

B .cohesive property - At the surface, the molecules can easily be absorbed by phytoplankton; as the water is removed, wave formation is initiated.

C .high specific heat value - At the surface, the molecules absorb heat; this drawns them towards the center, which starts the formation of waves.

D .surface tension - At the surface, the molecules are drawn towards the center; this action enables the water to move in unison for wave formation.
