Structure of DNA and RNA - Applications

Download Q&A

This section focuses on the practical applications of DNA and RNA structural knowledge in genetics, biotechnology, medicine, and molecular research. It is designed for Class 11–12 students, NEET aspirants, and undergraduate learners to connect molecular structure with real-world biological uses.

In this section, you will study:

  • Role of DNA structure in replication, transcription, and inheritance

  • Application of RNA structure in protein synthesis and gene regulation

  • Use of nucleic acid structure in genetic engineering and biotechnology

  • Application of DNA and RNA knowledge in molecular diagnostics

  • Structural basis of mutations and genetic disorders

  • Use of nucleic acid structure in forensic science and DNA fingerprinting

  • NCERT-based application questions, examples, and exam-oriented problems

The content is structured to enhance application-based understanding, strengthen practical reasoning, and help students confidently handle real-world and case-based questions in school examinations, NEET, and undergraduate assessments.

Understand how the structure of DNA and RNA underpins modern genetics, biotechnology, and medical science.
