DNA

Important definitions of DNA related concepts which are very important to learn!

These notes give such in detail description, processes and diagrams of recombinant DNA which is a common tested DNA technology in the IEB. It provides the process of this, including real life applications of this technology. It also includes notes about gene therapy which provide in depth detail about the various processes. Cloning is also included in these notes - and their disadvantages and the ethics behind such process. Study these and your A will be on its way!

These notes mainly entail the role of sex chromosomes, sex linked alleles, information about gene mutations and the different types, albinism, the human genome project! These notes are particularly important in order to study gametic mutations as well as somatic mutations. There are diagrams explaining structures as well as processes and the colour coding will help the learner remember all of the factual detail. These are the best.

These notes clearly explain the processes of translation and the various roles of RNA in the body. They have in-depth detail of translation, antibiotic interference with protein synthesis, DNA profiles, gene mutations and applications of DNA technology (including it’s disadvantages). Study these fantastic notes and achieve your A not only in grade 11 but also grade 12! :)

These are simple, informative and easy notes to study! The layout and colour combination allows the learner to fully comprehend the in-depth detail of Grade 12 Life Science - particularly DNA, RNA and their respective functions and structures. These notes include processes, definitions, diagrams with annotations, step by step explanations and diagrammed structures. Download these notes and study them to achieve your A not only in grade 11, but at the end of matric!

These meiosis notes are fun to learn! These notes have so many diagrams with annotations which makes it simple and easy to understand the complex processes of meiosis. It includes the differences between mitosis and meiosis. It also includes abnormal meiosis and the results of such - Down syndrome, Turner syndrome and Klinefelters.

Genetic engineering is a large chunk of the IEB syllabus and it often appears in the end of year paper in grade 12. These notes give information about alleles, homologous chromosomes, the difference of genotypes and phenotypes as well as concepts such as complete dominance and mono hybrid crosses. These notes show how to do a punnet square and a genetic cross which is very often tested! Link these notes to the Grade 11 and Grade 12 Mind Series Life Sciences Textbook for the IEB and you’ll be g...
