       How to write paragraph with adequate and inadequate

 A paragraph is a collection of sentences which all relate to one main idea or topic. Effective paragraphs have four main characteristics: a topic sentence, unity, coherence, and adequate development.
Adequate Development means to communicate a single idea fully, clearly, and effectively.

            The Differences between Cohesion and Coherence

Cohesion

Cohesion is a state or situation in which all the parts or ideas fit together well so that they form a united whole. Synonym : cohesiveness, coherence
Example : There was no cohesion in their performance. The lack of cohesion within the party lost them votes at election time.

Coherence

Coherence has two specific meanings/usages.
(1) The quality that something has when it makes sense or is pleasing because all the parts or steps fit together well and logically Synonym : unity Antonym : incoherence
Example : The stage sets were brilliant and they gave coherence to a piece which was bitty in the second half. The points you make are fine, but the whole essay lacks coherence.
(2) A state or situation in which all the parts or ideas fit together so well so that they form a united whole. Synonym cohesion, cohesiveness Antonym : incoherence
Example : His arrival threatened the coherence of the group. France's entry enhanced the coherence of the alliance.

Cohesion

Cohesion is achieved when writers connect their organized parts with sufficiently clear and numerous signals--like the words 'finally,' 'thus,' 'however,'--to make the development of their cases intelligible and to lead the reader safely along the emerging lines of their arguments. . . .

"[W]riting must have not only coherence, an effective design, but cohesion, an explicit set of 'hooks' and 'ties' that ensure a reader's interest and comprehension. Coherence is the kind of 'holding together' that a good design will give any discourse, whether written or spoken. Cohesion is the result of giving readers the right kind of explicit help in figuring out the design. Cohesion gives readers the clues for discovering coherence."
(Wayne C. Booth and Marshall W. Gregory, The Harper & Row Rhetoric: Writing as Thinking/Thinking as Writing, 1987)
Types of Cohesion

"In linguistics, [cohesion is] the use of language forms to indicate semantic relations between elements in a discourse. Grammatical cohesion concerns such matters as reference, ellipsis, substitution, and conjunction; lexical cohesion concerns such features as synonymy, antonymy, metonymy, collocation, repetition, etc.; instantial cohesion concerns ties that are valid only for a particular text. Together, cohesion and register contribute to textuality, the sense that something is a text and not a random collection of sentences."
(Tom Michael McCarthy and Tom McArthur, "Cohesion." The Oxford Companion to the English Language. Oxford Univ. Press, 1992)
