abstract algebra question

Name: Anonymous 2009-03-04 5:04

Is there a shortcut to prove that Z, Q, R, S are pairwise nonisomorphic? I can split it into three proofs and do them individually, but I feel like there has to be some property that covers all the cases.

It can't be just the fact that Z < Q < R < S because the subset of even integers is isomorphic to the set of all integers.

Anyone care to push me in the right direction, if there is one?

Z is not divisible, Q is divisible, R have greater cardinality, C have a multiplicative elements of finite order.
