Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]

The area in Biology that uses high speed computational devices for storing enormous amount of data, retrieval and analysis is called ____

A	Bioinformatics
B	Biotechnology
C	Biostatistics

Explanation:

Detailed explanation-1: -Storage and retrieval of data In bioinformatics, data banks are used to store and organize data. Many of these entities collect DNA and RNA sequences from scientific papers and genome projects. Many databases are in the hands of international consortia.

Detailed explanation-2: -It is an interdisciplinary field, which harnesses computer science, mathematics, physics, and biology (fig 1). Bioinformatics is essential for management of data in modern biology and medicine.

Detailed explanation-3: -Computational biology refers to the use of data analysis, mathematical modeling and computational simulations to understand biological systems and relationships. An intersection of computer science, biology, and big data, the field also has foundations in applied mathematics, chemistry, and genetics.
