The toxins damage the cells lining the ileum, causing them to lose theirmicrovilli. The damage to the cells reduces the absorption of the products of digestion and reduces the absorption of water, resulting in diarrhoea. box Explainwhythedamagetothecellsliningtheileumreducesabsorptionof the products of digestion and why this reduces absorption of water.

MARKSCHEME–A-LEVELBIOLOGY–7402/1–JUNE 2023 Markschemeinstructionstoexaminers 1. General Themarkschemeforeachquestionshows: • themarksavailableforeachpartofthequestion • thetotalmarksavailableforthequestion • thetypicalansweroranswerswhichareexpected • extra information tohelp the examiner make his or herjudgement and help to delineate what is acceptable or not worthy of credit or, in discursive answers, to give an overview of thearea in which a mark or marks may be awarded. The extra information in the ‘Comments’ column is aligned to the appropriate answer in the left-handpart ofthemarkschemeandshouldonlybeappliedtothatiteminthemarkscheme. At the beginning of a part of a question a reminder may be given, for example: where consequentialmarkingneedstobeconsideredinacalculation;ortheanswermaybeon the diagram or at a different place on the script. Ingeneraltheright-handsideofthemarkschemeistheretoprovidethoseextradetails which confuse the main part of the mark scheme yet may be helpful in ensuring that marking is straightforward and consistent. 2. Emboldening Inalist of acceptableanswerswheremorethanonemarkisavailable‘any twofrom’is used, with the number of marks emboldened. Each of the following bullet points is a potential mark.

Differenttermsinthemarkschemeareshownbya/;egallowsmooth/free movement. 3. Markingpoints Markingoflists This applies to questions requiring a set number of responses, but for which students haveprovidedextraresponses.Thegeneralprincipletobefollowedinsuchasituation is that ‘right + wrong = wrong’. Eacherror/contradictionnegateseachcorrectresponse.So,ifthenumberoferrors/ contradictions equals or exceeds the number of marks available for the question, no marks can be awarded. However,responsesconsideredtobeneutral(oftenprefacedby‘Ignore’in the ‘Comments’ column of the mark scheme) are not penalised. 3 MARKSCHEME–A-LEVELBIOLOGY–7402/1–JUNE 2023 Markingprocedureforcalculations Full marks can be given for a correct numerical answer, without any working shown. However,iftheanswerisincorrect,mark(s)canusuallybegainedbycorrectsubstitution / workingandthisisshowninthe‘Comments’columnorbyeachstageofa longer calculation.

Errorscarriedforward,consequentialmarkingandarithmeticerrors Allowances for errorscarried forwardaremost likely to berestrictedto calculationquestionsandshouldbeshownbytheabbreviationECFor consequential in the mark scheme. An arithmetic error should be penalised for onemark only unless otherwise amplified in the mark scheme. Arithmetic errors may arise from a slip in a calculation or froman incorrect transfer of a numerical value from data given in a question. Phoneticspelling The phonetic spelling of correct scientific terminology should be credited unless there isa possible confusion with another technical term. Brackets (…..)areusedtoindicateinformationwhichisnot essentialforthemarktobeawarded but is included to help the examiner identify the sense of the answer required. Ignore/Insufficient/Donotallow Ignore or insufficient is used when the information given is irrelevant to the question ornot enough to gain the marking point. Any further correct amplification could gain the marking point. Donot allowmeansthatthisisawronganswerwhich,evenifthecorrectanswer is given, will still mean that the mark is not awarded. 4 MARKSCHEME–A-LEVELBIOLOGY–7402/1–JUNE2023 Question MarkingGuidance Mark Comments 01.1 1.
