Solution

The correct option is B
Honey

Viscosity is the property of a fluid which opposes the relative motion between two surfaces of the fluid that are moving at different velocities. In simple terms, viscosity means friction between the molecules of the fluid. Fluids having greater viscosity flows slowly, are thick and sticky than fluids having low viscosity. Therefore, honey is the correct answer.
