In a Note, select the words you want to remember. Choose Make cloze in the writing toolbar. Choose Make cloze with hint if a short clue would help. You can also choose Cloze from the Card type menu and write the hidden parts yourself.

In Cloze text, write each answer between {{c1:: and }}. Add :: and a short clue if it helps, as in {{c1::inward current::fast ion flow}}. Use c2, c3, and c4 for the next hidden parts. Keep the timing and surrounding clues visible; a learner should connect the ideas rather than guess a missing word.
Preview the Card to check that each blank has enough clues. Save the Card and wait for Saved. See the quickstart for the full example.
