Solution

The correct option is A

Viscosity


Viscosity is the resistance offered by a layer of a fluid to the relative motion of another layer. It is also the resistance offered by a fluid to the movement of any object through it e.g if we move a ball inside water then we would feel less resistance than if we move it in honey, so we can conclude that honey has more viscosity than water.
