You decide to try your hand at canning pickles. you immerse freshly picked cucumbers in a solution that has a solute concentration twice that found in the cucumber cells. you allow your preparation to cure for several months in a sealed jar. when you later open the jar, you find that the fluid surrounding the pickles is more dilute than when you started. this change in concentration is due to .

The answer is-  Pickles in a hypertonic solution losing water through osmosis

Explanation:

Osmosis is a process in which water or other solvent pass through a semipermeable membrane or plasma membrane from a less concentrated solution (low solute) to a more concentrated solution (high solute). The cells of the pickles which have been placed in a hypertonic solution lost water as the water which is a lower solute concentration moved to a  higher solute concentration which was twice that found in cucumber cells.. Osmotic process does not require the application of energy.

jefferson hoped to establish trade with the native american people of the west and find a water route to the pacific. jefferson also was fascinated by the prospect of what could be learned about the geography of the west, the lives and languages of the native americans, the plants and animals, the soil, the rocks, the weather, and how they differed from those in the east.
