Choose correct statements about thermophilic proteins

I. The proteins found in thermophilic species are much more stable than their mesophilic counterparts.

II. All thermostable proteins have such a high incidence of salt bridges

III. the most important of which are an increased size of the protein’s hydrophobic core, an increased size of the interface between its domains and/or subunits, and a more tightly packed core as evidenced by a reduced surface-to-volume ratio.

IV. Several of these thermostable enzymes have a superabundance of salt bridges on their surfaces.

Which of the following statement is true?

A) PAM matrices are derived from an evolutionary model whereas the BLOSUM matrices consist of entirely direct observations. 

B) Because of BLOSUM matrices have less evolutionary meaning that is why the PAM matrices are used most often for reconstructing phylogenetic trees.

C) BLOSUM matrices are entirely derived from local sequence alignments of conserved sequence blocks, whereas the PAM matrix is based on the global alignment of full-length sequences.

D) BLOSUM matrices are more advantageous in searching databases and finding conserved domains in proteins.
