Solution

The correct options are
A Adhesion or stickiness
B Plowing effect
C Surface roughness
Factors responsible for friction are:

1. Adhesion or stickiness - This gives rise to friction when two smooth, even surfaces slide over each other.
2. Plowing effect - This is when one of the surfaces is smooth and has scope for surface deformations when an object slides on it.
3. Surface roughness - This is when the irregularities present on the surfaces interlock with each other.
