  1. Upon sucking, the liquid flows in the delivery tube but stops on releasing because the sucking force is withdrawn/ Liquid flows because of the pressure difference
     
  2. The liquid fails to flow on release because there is no pressure difference to push the liquid up the tube without sucking/ the level of the container is above the liquid level.
