(a) It will continue to be saturated.
(b) It will become unsaturated.
(c) Whether it remains saturated or becomes unsaturated depends on the amount of water taken.
(d) It will continue to be saturated, but if the temperature is increased beyond 10 °C it will become unsaturated.

Solution

(b) it will become unsaturated

If the temperature of saturated sugar solution is increased by 10 ^oC, then more sugar can be dissolved in the solution and the solution becomes unsaturated.
