Detailed explanation-2: -Sugar when mixed in tea gets completely dissolved in it. Here, sugar is the solute, tea is the solvent and sugar mixed in tea as a whole is a solution.

Detailed explanation-3: -A supersaturated solution is one that has more solute than it can hold at a certain temperature. Typically when the temperature of a solution is increased, more particles can be dissolved, thus increasing the amount of solute. A supersaturated solution goes through all of the steps listed above for the iced tea.
