B1 aqa anyone put this for antibiotics resistance

The data question.
I put the higher the generation the more resistant bacteria there are. This is because doctors are over prescribing it and people aren't completing the full course
I think who had to talk about how there is a mutation in the bacteria causing the antibiotic to only kill the non-resistant allowing the resistant to reproduce and increase in population.
Hm, that really confused me. I ended up putting that as the generations increase then the likelihood of a mutation occurring increases, the mutation makes the bacteria resistant and the resistant strain can reproduce and survive.
Don't take this as the right answer, it probably isn't, I just guessed. I really hate biology.
Also, there's a huge debate in our year as to whether plants produce glucose or starch, I (stupidly) put starch...
