Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Biological databases are classified by data type (nucleotide sequences, protein sequences, metabolic pathways) OR by curation level (primary, secondary, tertiary). 'Primary databases' describes the curation level, not the type of data stored, making C the correct answer as it does NOT fit 'classification by data type'.
