How does the structural diversity of RNA contribute to its functional versatility in cellular processes?

• A. RNA's structural diversity makes it more prone to degradation than DNA.
• B. RNA's structural diversity limits its ability to be transcribed into proteins.
• C. RNA's structural diversity allows it to form stable double helices, similar to DNA.
• D. RNA's structural diversity enables it to adopt various shapes, allowing it to interact with different molecules and perform multiple roles, such as catalysis, regulation, and information transfer.

Answer: (D)
