Explanation:

Other disaccharides, such as sucrose, are non-reducing sugars and will not react with Benedict's solution. Starches are also non-reducing sugars. ... The C=O in fructose and glucose are broken during dehydration synthesis when sucrose is formed. Starch doesn't react with Benedict's solution.
