Who introduced the Three-Domain System of classification?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Carl Woese

Correct answer: B, Carl Woese. To solve this, connect the phrase “three-domain system” with the scientist who used molecular evidence, especially comparisons involving ribosomal RNA, to examine deep relationships among organisms. Carl Woese proposed three domains: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya. A is incorrect because R. H. Whittaker is associated with the five-kingdom classification: Monera, Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia. C is incorrect because Linnaeus developed the binomial naming system and an influential two-kingdom classification, not the three-domain system. D is incorrect because Aristotle made an early classification based mainly on observable features of plants and animals. Memory cue: “Woese = three domains.” Do not confuse a domain with a kingdom: domains are a higher-level grouping, and the system emphasizes broad molecular differences.
