Double-stranded DNA ensures that the actual genetic information, that is, the base pairs which give the genetic code and bound and protected in the center of the strand. It is less likely to react and can be opened up when needed, as in case of replication and transcription. Another huge advantage of double strand DNA is the ability of the cell to create a new segment of DNA in the case of DNA damage using the non-damaged strand.
