What are theDifferences between DNA computers and silicon computers?

∙ 12y ago
DNA provides many potential computing advantages compared to silicon. First, silicon is a limited resource, whereas DNA will be in constant supply as long as cellular organisms exist. Because DNA is readily available, it's cheap compared to silicon. Next, "biochips" made of DNA are eco-friendly, compared to the toxic materials required to manufacture silicon microprocessors. Finally, DNA computers would be much smaller than current computers.

DNA computers have the potential to take computing to new levels which of the following is not an advantage of using DNA instead of silicon?
Today's computers are many times smaller than DNA computers.
How are DNA microchips better than silicon microchips?
Theoretically DNA based processors have the potential to be much faster than current silicon tecnology.
Can computers make DNA?
no.
What is the difference between genomic and bioinformatics?
genomics is the study of an entire sequence of an organism's DNA, while bioinformatics is the use of computers and data bases to organize and analyze DNA. bioinformatics makes genomics a bit easier.
What is used to read DNA sequences?
high tech computers.
Latest topics in electronics for PowerPoint presentation?
Quantum Computers,3g technology,latest robots,DNA computers
Is it possible to make DNA based robots?
There actually are some esoteric computing techniques that use DNA, but there isn't anything that could be described as a DNA based robot. So far, robots are silicon based.
Do computers viruses have DNA?
No. Computer viruses use lines and strings of code.
What is the relationship between chromosomes and genes and between genes and DNA?
Chromosomes contain genes which are segments of DNA.
What the difference between rna and dna in number of strands?
the difference between DNA and RNA AS DNA ARE DOUBLE STANDED AND RNA IS SINGLE STANDED
What is the difference between coding DNA and junk DNA?
Junk DNA is non-coding DNA it does not code for protein.
What is the link between DNA and chromosomes?
DNA is housed in chromosomes.
