Answer:

Sugar can be dissolved in water to make a solution. If there is enough sugar in the solution – such as a sugar syrup – it will draw water molecules out of the food cells, effectively lowering the food's water activity. This happens via a process of osmosis.

Answer:

Salt and sugar's other antimicrobial mechanisms include interference with a microbe's enzyme activity and weakening the molecular structure of its DNA. Sugar may also provide an indirect form of preservation by serving to accelerate accumulation of antimicrobial compounds from the growth of certain other organisms :)
