Solution

Substances which will scatter light are-
b) Blood
c) Starch solution
e) Milk

Only these will show scattering of light because these are colloidal solution and colloidal particles a scatter light as a result of which the path of the beam becomes visible. This phenomenon is called tyndall effect.

Rest of the solutions are true solutions. Therefore do not show tyndall effect.
