Corpus callosum
Yes, the spinal cord is made up of bundles of neurons called nerve tracts or tracts of white matter. These tracts carry sensory information from different parts of the body to the brain, as well as transmit motor signals from the brain to various parts of the body to control movement.
No, the white matter in brain tissue is the area of brain tissue that contains the nerve fibre tracts with their covering of myelin which appears white.
The white matter is the area of the brain where signals travel to other parts of the brain. It is located in the subcortical area.

Both. Everything in your body, from your brain to your hair to your toes to your bones, is made of cells. Different kinds of cells make up different parts of your body. Neurons make up your nervous system (brain,spinal cord, and nerves), red and white blood cells make up your blood, etc.
Myelinated nerves are white, and composes the white matter of the brain and spinal cord they also are able to pass an action potential down an axon much faster; Unmyelinated nerves are gray, and composes the gray matter of the brain and spinal cord. These nerves transmit signals much slower
nerves are white tough and string like structure there r two types of nerves sensory nerve and motor nerve neuron.............. neuron is basic unit of structure and function of nervous system ..........brain spinal cord and nerves are made up of neurons
Arteries and nerves have nothing in common with each other. Arteries carry oxygenated blood from the Heart to the body, where as the nerves carry electrical impulses from the Brain. Arteries and nerves are not hard to tell apart, nor are they easy to see. Nerves are microscopic so they are very hard to see with the naked eye. The arteries are very deep within our bodies which makes them hard to see. To answer your question Arteries are like large tubes that are red in colour where as nerves are usually depicted as thread like organisms that are usually white or silver in colour.
It means that there is a small amount of removal of the mylen sheath of the nerves in the white matter under the gray matter (which is the cortex of the brain). This part of the brain appears to be in semi-ovals and so the name.
Yes, the spinal cord is made up of bundles of neurons called nerve tracts or tracts of white matter. These tracts carry sensory information from different parts of the body to the brain, as well as transmit motor signals from the brain to various parts of the body to control movement.
The popular trick strengthens brain's white matter through which messages pass within the nervous system.
Mild diffuse cerebral and cerebellum volume loss and T2 hyperintensity within the periventricular white matter refers to a stroke. This can cause a slight decrease in the white matter of the brain.

Grey matter is the neural cells of the brain. White matter is the axon fat which surrounds the nerves in sheaths for protection. Grey matter can also be spelt Gray matter and the name comes from the simple appearance and the colour of the brain's lobes.
The brain consists of gray matter (40%) and white matter (60%) contained within the skull. Brain cells include neurons and glial cells.The brain has three main parts: the cerebrum, the cerebellum, and the brain stem (medulla).
No, the white matter in brain tissue is the area of brain tissue that contains the nerve fibre tracts with their covering of myelin which appears white.
The function is to connect the left and right side of brain (hemisphere)The two hemispheres are physically separate. The corpus callosum, a thick white band of nerves deep within the brain, is one of the connects that allow the two hemispheres to communicate and coordinate their activities.it connects the right and left hemispheres of the brain
