The weakness of the hydrogen bonds between DNA bases allows base pairs to separate during transcription and replication.

Base pairing in DNA

The two strands of DNA contain complementary bases that are associated with hydrogen bonds.

During transcription and replication, the two strands need to be separated in order for one of the strands to be transcribed or the two strands replicated to produce daughter strands respectively.

The weak hydrogen bond, thus, makes it easier to separate the base pairing in order.
