PLEASE DRAW THE TREES Q$6.$ You are provided with the following distance matrix representing the pairwise distances

between five species $($A$,$ B$,$ C$,$ D$,$ and E$)$:

$\left[\begin{array}{cccccc}?& A& B& C& D& E\\ |A& 0& 4& 7& 6& 8\\ |B& 4& 0& 7& 6& 8\\ |C& 7& 7& 0& 6& 5\\ |D& 6& 6& 6& 0& 3\\ |E& 8& 8& 5& 3& 0\end{array}\right]$

a$.(4$ pts$)$ Perform the first iteration of the Neighbor$-$Joining $(NJ)$ algorithm to start

constructing the phylogenetic tree.

b$.(4$ pts$)$ Perform the first iteration of the UPGMA algorithm to start constructing the

phylogenetic tree.

c$.(3$ pts$)$ Compare the result at the end of the first iteration $($neighbors$,$ branch lengths of

the NJ and UPGMA trees$).$
