When an ideal gas is compressed adiabatically, its temperature rises: the molecules on the average have more kinetic energy than before. The kinetic energy increases
(a) Because of collisions with moving parts of the wall only
(b) Because of collisions with the entire wall
(c) Because the molecules gets accelerated in their motion inside the volume
(d) Because of redistribution of energy amongst the molecules

This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
When the gas is compressed adiabatically, the total work done on the gas increases its internal energy which in turn increases the KE of the gas molecule and hence, the collisions between molecules also increases.
