 🧬Understanding In-silico, In-vitro, and In-vivo Techniques in Biotechnology In Biotechnology, scientists use various approaches to study biological processes and develop new treatments or innovations. Three primary techniques are In-silico,In-vitro, and In-vivo—each with unique applications but often complementing one another in research. 💻 1. In-silico  Definition: In-silico refers to computational and simulation-based techniques used to study biological processes. These methods rely on computer models and algorithms to predict outcomes, analyze data, and simulate experiments.  Applications: Drug discovery, molecular docking, genomics, and systems biology are common fields where in-silico techniques shine. This approach saves time and cost by predicting biological behaviors before moving to laboratory or animal testing. 🦠2. In-vitro  Definition In-vitro involves experiments conducted outside of a living organism, typically in controlled laboratory settings like test tubes or petri
