Which of the following statements about electron microscopy are true? a) Most existing protein structures have been resolved using electron microscopy b) Electron microscopy is not used in structural biology as it can not give as high a resolution as X-ray crystallography and NMR c) The smaller a protein, the easier it is to solve its structure with electron microscopy d) By taking pictures of the same protein frozen in ice thousands of times and then adding them together, you get a high-resolution image of the protein e) The first protein structure with true atomic resolution was solved using electron microscopy last year

You're on duty at a prominent Metro laboratory. You mixed up a sample for protein analysis of the samples needed for forensic examination that contains pure DNA while waiting for your closest friend. You decided to use the knowledge you gained in Biochemistry to run the combined samples through a spectrophotometer to eliminate contaminated protein. Determine which of the samples should be extracted and separated for protein analysis based on the following data. Show all of your solutions.
