About ageing mind maps

GoConqr Original

Using Ageing mind maps

These maps connect ideas about ageing with changes in different parts of the body. For an overview of explanations, start with Aging and Elderly, which links programmed and error theories with the biological timetable. If you are focusing on muscle and bone, Musculoskeletal Ageing offers a more specific route through muscle, cartilage and bone.

Follow a branch

Choose a branch and explain its connections in your own words before moving to the next. The map on sarcopenia titled Ageing includes metabolic and cellular changes, while Aging Changes in the Senses covers hearing and vision. You can compare the branches with your notes as you study.

When you want to check what you remember rather than follow connections, switch to a quiz on the Ageing unit page. Flashcards there offer another way to review terms. Pick a map and trace a branch from its main idea to its details.
