Is the brainstem white matter or gray matter?
cortex is gray consisiting of neuron cell bodies.
Does the hippocampus count as gray or white matter?
grey matter
The islands of gray matter inside the hemisphere of the cerebrum are known as the cerebral cortex?
The few islands of gray matter within the interior of the cerebrum are made up of neuron cell bodies and unmyelinated axons. These areas of gray matter act as the central processing unit of the brain. Many things can affect this gray matter, such as, smoking, child abuse, alcoholism, and drugs.
What are the three distinct areas of language cortex in the left hemisphere of the brain?
augular gyrus- ability to read aloud broca area-speaking and wernickes area-language comprehension
What region is responsible for the gray coloration seen in gray matter of the CNS?
gray matter represents the cytons and non myelinated axon fibres....so actually the white matter is due to myelin and gray due to nothing but cyton....
Are the thalamic nuclei white or gray matter?
the thalamic nuclei is made of unmyelinated axons which are gray matter
Is the brainstem white matter or gray matter?
cortex is gray consisiting of neuron cell bodies.
What is the orientation of gray and white matter in the brain?
gray matter is composed of neuron cells and is concentrated in the cerebral cortex and nuclei and basal ganglia. white matter is composed ofneuron processes which form tracts connecting parts of the brain with each other and with the spinal cord.
How does the arrangement of white matter and gray matter differ in the spinal cord and the brain?
Gray matter in the cerebrum is located in the cerebral cortex and in the deeper basal nuclei, and the white matter lies deep to the neural cortex and around the basal nuclei (Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology, Martini & Nath, 2009, p. 480).The central area of the spinal cord is gray matter, and the outer surface of much of the brain consist of gray matter called cortex. (Anatomy and Physiology, Seeley Stephens Tate, 2008, p. 382)
Is cerebellar white matter or gray matter?
That would be gray matter.

Is cortex of cerebellum part of the gray matter or white matter?
gray matter
Is the gray matter deep to white matter?
no the report says normal gray white differentiation
Does the hippocampus count as gray or white matter?
grey matter
Is the gray matter of the cerebellum superficial or deep to the white matter?
It is superficial to the white matter.
Are motor neuron cell bodies located in the gray or white matter?
gray matter
