A) Based only on sequences in column B, protein 4 reveals the greatest evolutionary divergence.
B) Comparing proteins 1 and 2 in column A reveals that these two proteins have diverged the most throughout evolution.
C) Protein 4 is the protein that shows the greatest overall homology to protein 1.
D) Proteins 2 and 3 show a greater evolutionary distance than proteins 1 and 4.
E) The portions of amino acid sequence shown suggest that these proteins are completely unrelated.
