An axon is a nerve fibre, "a single process extending from the cell body of a neurone and carrying nerve impulses away from it".
A nerve bundle is made up of hundreds or thousands of axons. A good factsheet can be found at www.ivy-rose.co.uk/Topics/Neurons.htm
The muscle spindle helps to control the contraction of muscles. It is a special sensory organ that uses sensory neuronal fibers to find how long the intrafusal muscle fibers are.
The spinal cord handles electrical signals sent between the brain and the rest of the body.
grey and white. White matter of the spinal cord is composed of myelinated and unmyelinated fibers that allow communication between different parts of the spinal cord and between the cord and brain. Gray matter in the spinal cord looks like the letter H or a butterfly.
Sensory nerves are responsible for carrying impulses toward the central nervous system (CNS). These nerves transmit information about sensations such as touch, pain, temperature, and proprioception from the body to the brain and spinal cord for processing.
The ascending tracts (upward) contain sensory nerves, that pass sensory information from the body to the brain. The descending tracts (downward) contain motor nerves that activate the muscles in the body according to the brain's "commands".

Yes, a tumor on the spine can be dangerous as it may compress the spinal cord or nerves, leading to symptoms such as pain, weakness, or paralysis. Treatment options depend on the type of tumor, its location, and extent of spinal cord compression. Close monitoring and prompt medical intervention are crucial in managing spinal tumors.
