Green olives may be preserved in brine, which is a 20-30% salt solution. How does this method prevent contamination by microorga
vredina [299]

The correct answer is Bacteria can't survive in a hypertonic solution because they lose water.

The 20-30% salt solution is hypertonic as Compared to the bacterial concentration of salt. In this case, the bacteria present in the solution would lose water.
