These comprehensive Grade 12 Biology notes provide a clear and organized overview of key concepts in biochemistry and cell biology. The document is designed to help students understand complex biological processes and prepare effectively for tests, quizzes, and exams. The notes cover important topics such as: - Chemistry for Biological Sciences - Properties and importance of water in biological systems - Functional groups and their role in biological molecules - Introduction to biomolecules and biological macromolecules - Proteins (structure, function, and importance) - Carbohydrates and their role in energy storage and structure - Lipids and their biological functions - Enzymes and how they regulate biochemical reactions - Biochemical reactions and metabolic processes - Cell membrane structure and function - Cell transport (diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion, active transport, endocytosis, and exocytosis) - Cell structure and organelles (parts of the cell and their functions) - Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA structure and roles) These notes are written in a clear, structured format with key definitions, explanations, and organized summaries that make difficult topics easier to understand. They are ideal for reviewing course material, preparing for exams, and reinforcing classroom learning.

Isostopes

Atoms of the (same protons) that different numbers of neutrons
·



same element have .




·

Because they have different neutron counts , isotopes of an element have different atomic masses but they

share nearly identical chemical properties .

Isotopes of the same element chemically behave the same since shemical behavior is determined by electrons

Ionic & Molecular compounds

chemical bond is the force that holds atoms together in a
compound .

this interaction allows atoms to become more stabl . they obtain a full valence orbit

, Electronegativity Difference


Electronegativity is the ability for an atom to attract elections in a chemical bond

.




Higher E- > atom pulls electrons strongly

·


The atom attracts the shared electrons closer to itself .




this happens when two of one atom has high electronegativity,
·




the elections spend more time near atom it becomes slightly negative

Electronegativity difference is when two atoms form a bond , subtract the smaller EN from the


larger EN :
