2. They contain hemoglobin, a red protein that combines with oxygen. They have no nucleus so they can contain more of the hemoglobin. they are small and flexible so that they can fit through narrow blood vessels.

3. This will lead to excess blood loss and can even lead to the death.

4. Such as as sugar, oxygen, and hormones to our cells. It also carries waste away from the cells, this waste is eventually flushed out of the body in urine, feces, sweat, and lungs.

Explain how this experiment showed that gene flow was not the cause of antibiotic resistance.
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

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
