    MARK SCHEME for the November 2005 question paper

    0610 BIOLOGY
    0610/05 Paper 5

    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.

    The minimum marks in these components needed for various grades were previously
    published with these mark schemes, but are now instead included in the Report on the
    Examination for this session.

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

    CIE is publishing the mark schemes for the November 2005 question papers for most IGCSE
    and GCE Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level syllabuses and some Ordinary
    Level syllabuses.
