Best Answer

A model of DNA is good for understanding its properties better, but it is also challenging because many of these properties involve hundreds of base pairs or more.

a dna molecule is the structure (double helix) by making a model you would just be making the double helix model

Because you can not Really see DNA itself and the mode will give you a better insight on the DNA

Why DNA molecules differ from the RNA molecules?

Generally the DNA molecule is double stranded to RNA's single strand. The RNA molecule uses uracil as a base while the DNA molecule uses thymine. RNA has catabolic properties that allow it to act in things such a ribosomes and tRNA. DNA is just a carrier of the genetic information.


How are transcription and replication differ?

When RNA is produced from DNA strand it is called transcription and when another DNA molecule comes out from the previous one it is called replication


Who developed the model of DNA?

James Watson & Francis Crick were the ones who found out the double helix structure of the DNA molecule.
