This question is worth 6 pts on exam 2. A simplified tree is given below. Some of the major eukaryotic groups are labeled and their relationships are shown in the tree. Blue dots are present at some of the nodes; these are lettered. Grey lines are shown on various branches; these are numbered. Y and Z are two groups at the branch tips on the left of the tree.  Using the tree above, determine whether each of the following statements is true or false. [a] Apicomplexans and ciliates are sister groups. [b] The most recent common ancestor of animals and choanoflagellates is C. [c] Diatoms and foraminifera are more closely related than diatoms and dinoflagellates. [d] The protists are a monophyletic group.
