What happens to the micro-organisms in sugar or salt?
When micro-organisms come into contact with high concentrations of sugar or salt, the osmotic balance is disrupted, causing water to leave the cells through osmosis. This can lead to dehydration and ultimately cell death, making sugar and salt effective at inhibiting the growth of microorganisms.
What might happen to cells that are exposed to high concentration of sugar?

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 sugar solution when expose to air?
When a sugar solution is exposed to air, the water in the solution can evaporate, concentrating the sugar. This can cause the sugar solution to become more viscous or even crystallize if enough water evaporates. Additionally, airborne contaminants or microorganisms can potentially interact with the sugar solution.
If a soft drink contains high concentrations of sugar if cooled what could happen?
the crystals of sugar separate out..
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.
What concentrations of sugar may be used in an IV?
Typically, concentrations of sugar in IV solutions are kept low to reduce the risk of complications like increased blood sugar levels and vein irritation. Dextrose solutions used in IVs are usually in the range of 2.5% to 10% concentration. Concentrations higher than this can be damaging to veins and may require close monitoring.
What happens to the body when insulin no longer works?
The body's blood cells cannot absorb the sugar/glucose needed to give energy.
How do cells simple sugar molecules?
Cells store Extra Sugar as Larger Carbohydrates
What cells carry sugar?
Generally all aerobic cells contain sugar to respire
