How do scientists receive the genetic information in organisms since the DNA and 
RNA molecules are so microscopic?
In my biology class, I have studied DNA and RNA in great detail.  But when 
obtaining this information I was curious on how scientists, such as yourself, can 
obtain so much information from such a minuscle object, RNA and DNA.  This 
information is used for research on genetic disorders and DNA structure.  I have 
been amazed on how much information has been obtained from DNA, but curious on 
how they get it. Thank you for your time!
