Chapter 26.3, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To find: Accuracy of parsimonious tree and its occurrences.
Introduction:
Parsimony is the science depicting simple scientific notion with proper evidence. Here, tree building makes other aspects equal while best hypothesis needs minute evolutionary fluctuation.

Species 1 and 2 are sister species from which you’ve cloned related genes. On the gene tree on the top of the next page, use labels to answer the following questions:
(a) Label the node that represents a gene duplication with “D,”
(b) Label the nodes that represent speciation events with “S,”
(c) Pick a pair of genes that are paralogs and label them both “P.”
(d) Pick a pair of genes that are orthologs and label them both “O.”
