What examiners said
Correct answers gave oxygen rather than air and stated that oxygen is consumed or used rather than just inhaled.
— Examiner report, May/June 2025, 0413/12 Q11(a) (Cambridge)
This question was answered well and most candidates gained full credit.
— Examiner report, May/June 2025, 0413/12 Q11(b) (Cambridge)
Most candidates were able to gain at least partial credit here but there was some confusion between tidal volume and vital capacity. The most frequent correct response was identifying residual volume. Answers needed to include volume or capacity appropriately to gain credit.
