    MARK SCHEME for the June 2005 question paper

    0610 BIOLOGY
    0610/05 Paper 5 (Practical), maximum mark 40

    This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and students, to indicate the
    requirements of the examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were
    initially instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions
    that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began. Any substantial
    changes to the mark scheme that arose from these discussions will be recorded in
    the published Report on the Examination.

    All Examiners are instructed that alternative correct answers and unexpected
    approaches in candidates’ scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant
    knowledge and skills demonstrated.

    Mark schemes must be read in conjunction with the question papers and the Report
    on the Examination.

    • CIE will not enter into discussion or correspondence in connection with these
    mark schemes.

    CIE is publishing the mark schemes for the June 2005 question papers for most
    IGCSE and GCE Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level syllabuses and
    some Ordinary Level syllabuses.
    Grade thresholds for Syllabus 0610 (Biology) in the June 2005 examination.

    maximum minimum mark required for grade:


    mark
    A C E F
    available
    Component 5 40 31 24 18 15

    The threshold (minimum mark) for B is set halfway between those for Grades A and C.
    The threshold (minimum mark) for D is set halfway between those for Grades C and E.
    The threshold (minimum mark) for G is set as many marks below the F threshold as the
    E threshold is above it.
    Grade A* does not exist at the level of an individual component.
