Explain how this experiment showed that gene flow was not the cause of antibiotic resistance.

Due to no transfer of resistance allele.

Explanation:

The gene flow was not the cause of antibiotic resistance because the characteristics can't be transferred from one generation to the next generation. The organisms are evolved to become an antibiotic resistance due to their environmental conditions and this resistance quality is only present in the existing population and the alleles that are responsible for this resistance can't be transferred from the bacteria to the next generation so the experiment showed that gene flow was not the cause of antibiotic resistance

Amino acids are organic compounds that contain amino and carboxyl functional groups, along with a side chain specific to each amino acid. The key elements of an amino acid are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, although other elements are found in the side chains of certain amino acids.
