Answer: The answer will be ( 4 ) Potato contains starch but sugar does not contain starch.

Explanation: The potatoes are a rich source of starch. When the potato was tested with Iodine solution by Seema, the change of color of the iodine changed to blue-black as an indication of starch presence.

When the sugar was tested with the iodine, the color did not change because there is no starch components present in the sugar cubes.

Sugar is a source of carbohydrates. Made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

Formula,

Sugar = C_{12} H_{22} O_{11}
