Solution used for testing starch...​?

The correct answer is :

:— Iodine solution

Explanation :

Iodine solution is used for testing starch.

Starch is a type of carbohydrate whose presence in a food can be identified by Iodine solution.

To test for starch in food, a few drops of iodine solution is added to a raw or boiled sample of the food item. If starch is present in the food, the area in which the iodine solution is applied will appear blue or black. In this way the presence of starch in that substance is confirmed.

Starch is a type of carbohydrate that is found in potatoes, rice, and polysaccharides. It is found mainly only in plants.

For example, rice, potatoes, peas etc. are good sources of starch.
