Which test could she use to provide scientific evidence to support her argument that peas are high in fructose?(1 point) Responses Benedict’s test Benedict’s test brown paper bag test brown paper bag test iodine test iodine test vinegar test

To test for the presence of sugars like fructose, the appropriate test would be the Benedict’s test. This test is used to detect reducing sugars, which include fructose. The other tests mentioned (brown paper bag test, iodine test, vinegar test) are not suitable for specifically testing for fructose content. Therefore, she should use Benedict’s test to provide evidence supporting her argument.
