one of the most important part of biological molecules

In hydroxyl group, If we have oxygen as part of a polar covalent bond then the oxygen will pull the
electrons towards itself, more so than the hydrogen could.

In the case of keto group, rules still apply. Oxygen has more protons than carbon.
In the case of aldehyde group, we still have C double bond O

In general, whenever you see an oxygen atom bound to another atom of another element especially one
of our 6 element, then that bond is going to be polar covalent.
