 TO)

laminar 

Expert Solution
Step 1

Viscosity is the property which define the internal resistance between two adjacent layer and the shear deformation .In liquid viscosity mainly depends upon temperature and in gas it it is also the main function of temperature at moderate pressure.

In liquid viscosity is due to cohesive forces and in gases it is due to the momentum transfer in perpendicular direction.
