What happens to concentration of the sugar solution as the water is removed?
Concentration increases
What happens if a bacterial cell lands inside a jar of jelly?
Diffusion of the sugars occurs as there is an area of high concentration so they move to satisfy the concentration gradient, but due to such a high concentration of sugar in the jam, the cells in the fungi expand and lysis takes place.
What does not spoil even though it is exposed to bacteria?
Foods such as salted pork, strawberry preserves, and sweet pickles do not spoil when exposed to bacteria because of their cells and its sugar and salt content. When cells have enough salt or sugar, the cell membrane (which is selectively permeable) does not allow salt or sugar into the cell and therefore does not allow bacteria into the cell. Hence, the food does not spoil.
When cells breakdown a sugar molecule to produce chemical energy?
A chemical reaction that happens in every cell to break down sugar
What happens to the weight of the tomato when boiled in a sugar solution?
Tomatoes will loss weight in due time when sugar concentration is high enough to exceed the osmotic value of solutes in tomato.
What might happen to cells that are exposed to high concentration of sugar?

What happens to concentration of sugar in maple sap as the sap is boiled?
The concentration of the sugar increases
What happens to the concentration of sugar in maple sap as the sap is boiled?
The concentration of the sugar increases
What happens to concentration of the sugar solution as the water is removed?
Concentration increases
How do the pancreatic alpha cells of type 2 diabetic contribute to high blood sugar concentration?
When the pancreatic alpha cells respond, they secrete glucagon to signal cells to break down glycogen into glucose. As cells release sugar, blood glucose concentration increases.

What is the uses of sugar in preservation?
A high concentration of sugar or salt causes an osmotic gradient. Water will move from bacterial cells into the sugar solution and the bacteria will die.
What happens to an animal cell when placed in concentrated sugar solution?
the concentration inside and outside the cells are unequal, to make the balance correct water is lost from the cell. If the sugar concentration outside the cell is much higher than that inside the cell then the cell may "implode". If the concentration outside the cell is less than that inside the cell then the cell gains water and may burst or "explode".
What does not spoil even though it is exposed to bacteria?

Describe what happens in osmosis?
when you mix something such as, sugar or salt, with water, you lower the concentration of water molecules
What is sugar concentration?
its sugar.
