      A Level Biology A H420 23 October 2020

      Updated sample assessment material

      We have updated a small error in Table 21.1 of Question 21 on the H420/02 Biological diversity sample question paper.

      On page 24 of the PDF document, the values in the Seals column have been updated as follows:

      • 0.105
      • 0.005
      • 0.005

      The sample mark scheme for Question 21 (a) (ii) on page 47 of the PDF document has also been corrected to reflect the amended table values. 

      You can also download the amended Biological diversity sample material from the Assessment > Sample assessment materials section of our A Level Biology A qualification page.

      We apologise for the errors and any inconvenience this causes.

      If you would like further information please contact us on 01223 553998 or email science@ocr.org.uk.
