What is the significance of the double helix structure of DNA

The double helix structure of DNA provides a stable yet flexible framework for storing genetic information. It allows for the complementary base pairing between the two strands, which is critical for accurate DNA replication and repair. This structure also facilitates the compact packaging of DNA into chromosomes within the nucleus.
