D. Carbohydrates.

The iodine test is commonly used to confirm the presence of carbohydrates. Specifically, it is used to detect the presence of starch. When iodine reacts with starch, it forms a characteristic blue-black color. This test is often employed in biology and chemistry labs to identify the presence of carbohydrates in various substances.
