Answer:
presence of sugar means that the outside of the fruits is less dilute (more concentrated in sugar than water) than the inside of the fruits
in osmosis (diffusion of water molecules), water molecules have a net movement from a more dilute substance to a less dilute substance
sugar is the less dilute substance, so water is drawn out of the fruits and mixes with the sugar around them
the sugar dissolves in water, creating a sugar solution
this results in fruits with less water inside them, and surrounded by sugar solution
Hope this helps :)))
