Detailed explanation-1: -Gene flow is the movement of genes into or out of a population. Such movement may be due to migration of individual organisms that reproduce in their new populations, or to the movement of gametes (e.g., as a consequence of pollen transfer among plants).

Detailed explanation-2: -An important evolutionary force is gene flow: the flow of alleles in and out of a population due to the migration of individuals or gametes.

Detailed explanation-3: -Gene flow-also called migration-is any movement of individuals, and/or the genetic material they carry, from one population to another. Gene flow includes lots of different kinds of events, such as pollen being blown to a new destination or people moving to new cities or countries.

Detailed explanation-4: -Gene flow within a population can increase the genetic variation of the population, whereas gene flow between genetically distant populations can reduce the genetic difference between the populations.

Detailed explanation-5: -Answer and Explanation: Two types of gene flow are “Vertical gene flow” and “Horizontal gene flow". The movement of genetic material from one group to another is referred to as “gene flow".
