Yes. Your cerebellum is actually made up of very tightly folded outer layer of grey matter, and you can find the white matter lies underneath it.

What does the cerebellum have more than other part of the brain?
The cerebellum consists of a tightly folded and crumpled layer of cortex, with white matter underneath, several deep nuclei embedded in the white matter, and a fluid-filled ventricle at the base. At the microscopic level, each part of the cerebellar cortex consists of the same small set of neuronal elements, laid out with a highly stereotyped geometry. At an intermediate level, the cerebellum and its auxiliary structures can be decomposed into several hundred or thousand independently functioning modules called "microzones" or "microcompartments".
The arrangement of the white matter of the cerebellum is?
Arbor vitae......
The white matter of the cerebellum forms the?
Arbor Vitae
Do the pyramids consist of gray or white matter?
White matter
Are unmyelinated axons in the cerebral cortex?
The cerebral cortex contains the bodies of neurons which appear grey (grey matter). The layer under the cortex contains myelinated axons (white matter).
Is cortex of cerebellum part of the gray matter or white matter?
gray matter
What the brain has?
The brain comprises left and right hemisheres. Each of which has a cortex (grey matter) and white fibre tracts (white matter). The hemispheres share common midbrain and brainstem components and also a cerebellum.
Some of brain structures consist of gray or white matter what are they?
White matter is found in the inside of the brain and the spinal cord. Grey matter is found in most parts of the brain including the cerebellum and brain stem.
Is the cortex of cerebellum white or gray matter?
The white matter in the cerebellum is called 'arbor vitae,' meaning 'Tree of Life.' The name refers to the appearance of this part of the brain as branches on trees extending out. Within the arbor vitae are cerebellar nuclei, which receive excitatory inputs from nerve fibers.
Is the gray matter of the cerebellum superficial or deep to the white matter?
It is superficial to the white matter.
