Our group’s experiment was conducted in a similar fashion as the Fish Muscle Protein Lab. The primary difference was in the use land animals typically consumed by humans. A challenge we encountered was not having a solid hypothesis established prior to the experiment. Our hypothesis was formulated in the form of a reconstructed phylogenetic tree based on morphological and physiological traits. Besides affirming the correctness of the reconstructed tree, it is unclear what the actual purpose and driving question of the experiment was.
Within our data, a major place of error lies within a bend in the gel. During transport of the container to the viewing area, the gel was warped slightly. The protein bands do not align in true vertical. This skews the data of the lanes within the bottom of the image. We will be including that data taken from those lanes may not be reliable.
