Answer:

Cohesion

Is the attraction that molecules have for others of their same type.

Adhesion

Is the attraction that molecules have for others of different type by  intermolecular forces.

A good example of both is water  that can stick to itself through hydrogen bonds (cohesion) and can also stick to a glass due to adhesion.

So, while Cohesion is the force of attraction between adjacent particles within the same body, Adhesion is the interaction between the surfaces of different bodies.
