A mind map puts one topic in the middle and draws the links around it. It is a plan of the idea, not a second set of notes written in full sentences.
Write the topic in the middle, in one or two words. Add a few thick branches for the big ideas, then thinner branches for the detail: a key term, an example, or a condition.
Keep each label short. A sentence belongs in your written answer. The branch only has to remind you what comes next.
A list hides the shape of a topic. A map shows which ideas belong together and which one leads to the next, so an explain answer can follow a branch instead of a memorised paragraph.
Colour can group those branches. Use it as a cue, not as decoration. The map is the plan. The writing, and a check against the lesson, still have to come after it.
Centre: Water. Branches: dipole, hydrogen bond, solvent. Under solvent: glucose –OH groups, Na⁺ and Cl⁻, and triglycerides, which do not dissolve.
That map does not replace the lesson. It shows the order you would use in an answer: charge, then where the hydrogen bond forms, then which molecules it carries in plasma.
The board opens in the middle of a 2400 by 1600 pixel space and stays there while the pointer is on it. Move the pointer off the board to scroll the page. Hold Ctrl and scroll to zoom. The Move tool drags the view without changing anything on it. Select moves a line, shape, or word, and can resize or rotate text. Drag an arrow end to change its length, and the side handle to change its height.
