The best explanation for the flat bread that does not contain the air bubbles is: **The yeast did not produce the carbon dioxide needed for the bread to rise.**
Yeast fermentation typically produces carbon dioxide gas, which gets trapped in the dough and causes it to rise. If there is insufficient carbon dioxide production, the dough will remain flat and lack the air bubbles characteristic of properly risen bread.
