Answer:
cellulose is derived from D-glucose units, which condensed through beta(1->4)-glycosidic bond. This give cellulose to be a straight polymer therefore, it can't coil around iodine to produce blue color as starch does. ... Ablue-black colour indicates the presence of starch as a starch-polyiodide complex is formed.
