I was looking for a nice diagram of the most used model organisms and came across this phylogenetic horror. No yeast and bacteria are not invertebrate animals... 🤦♀️

The xenacoelomorph gonopore is homologous to the bilaterian anus
The bilaterian through gut with an anal opening is a key invention in animals, since it facilitates effective food processing, which allows animals to grow to a larger body size. However, because non-...

I'm looking to ship some RNA. While trying to find the right shipping code, I come across: HTS Code: 2934.99.90
"Nucleic Acids And There Salts, Wheter Or Not Chemically Defi" am I supposed to trust this?! There? Wheter?
