In 2D chromatography analysis, each of the spots on the chromatography paper represent different proteins. In order to

correctly identify the proteins and interpret the data, which experimental control must be included?



a. using cellular carbohydrate extract that was not labeled with radioactivity to determine the effect of radioactive
labeling on the study
b. using purified proteins of interest in individual trials to identify each protein's profile on the chromatography
paper
c. using water in place of the cellular carbohydrate extract to compare the profile of the proteins to a completely
pure sample
d. using water in place of the solvent to determine the effect of the solvent on the movement of the proteins on
the chromatography paper
e. removing excess proteins from the cellular carbohydrate extract before chromatography

You are building a phylogenetic tree to study the relationships between protists that live in termite guts. You find that the protists you're studying readily adapt to different environments through similar morphological means. Because of this, you're worried that any similarities between the protists are due to convergent evolution. What's the best kind of method to use to construct your tree?

A. parsimony B. bootstrapping C. maximum likelihood
