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.
Where is the basal ganglia located?
Both sides, in the lower middle part of the brain.
What is responsible for communication between cerebral areas and between the cerebral cortex and lower CNS centers?
The cerebral white matter
What is the meaning of cerebral medulla?
The cerebral medulla is the white matter (myelinated axons) of the cerebrum.
What is found in the gray matter of the cerebral cortex?
You have cell bodies found in the cerebral cortex. That is why it looks gray in colour.
What is the nuclei deep within the cerebral hemisphere white matter are collectively?
basal ganglia
What white matter structure connects the two cerebral hemisphere?
corpus callosum
Plants and animals remain and other dead matter are collectively called?
Detritivores
A bundle of fibers that provides for communication between different parts of the CNS are called?
The fiber tracts found in the cerebral hemisphere white matter are called association tracts if they connect two portions of the same hemisphere, projection tracts if they run between the cerebral cortex and the lower brain or spinal cord, and commissures if the run from one hemisphere to another.

What forms the outer layer of the cerebral cortex?
The cerebral cortex is actually the covering layer. It is a thin layer of tissue that covers the part of the brain called the cerebrum.
How many cortexes in the human brain?
The human brain has four lobes of the cerebral cortex. Each lobe in the human brain is named from the bone that covers the lobe.
What is Gray matter on the surface of cerebral hemisphere?
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.
What are two types of matter that exist in the brain?
A thin layer of gray matter called the cerebral cortex comprises the outer portion of the cerebrum.
What is in the cerebral cortex?
In the cerebral cortex there are 6 layers of neurons (grey matter).
What is responsible for communication between cerebral areas and between the cerebral cortex and lower CNS centers?
The cerebral white matter
