Answer: 1. Genes expressed as RNA

Key idea: ESTs identify genes that are expressed as RNA.

In the genome-sequencing approach, one method sequences all genes expressed as RNA (Expressed Sequence Tags), and the other sequences the whole genome including non-coding regions. So ESTs refer to genes expressed as RNA.
