Using RNA Sequencing to Classify Organisms into Three Primary Kingdoms.

Evans, Robert H.

American Biology Teacher, v45 n3 p151-55 Mar 1983

Using the biochemical record to class archaebacteria, eukaryotes, and eubacteria involves abstractions difficult for the concrete learner. Therefore, a method is provided in which students discover some basic tenets of biochemical classification and apply them in a "hands-on" classification problem. The method involves use of RNA sequencing. (JN)
