No. They are almost never myelinated, but can be.
Bundles of neuron processes are called tracts in the cns and nerves in the pns
I'm guessing; "myelinated nerve fibres" contrary to the much slower "non-myelinated nerve fibres"
Yes, neurosomas of the anterior root are located in the gray matter of the spinal cord. The gray matter contains cell bodies, dendrites, and unmyelinated axons, whereas the white matter consists mostly of myelinated axons.
If I was paying attention in med school, I think... The pre-ganglionic fibers are myelinated and the post-ganglionic are unmyelinated. This is in reference to the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems.
Non-myelinated fibers appear as thin, unmyelinated axons within bundles of nerve fibers. They lack the myelin sheath that surrounds some other nerve fibers, which gives them a more transparent or grayish appearance compared to myelinated fibers. Non-myelinated fibers are typically smaller in diameter and conduct nerve impulses more slowly than myelinated fibers.
largely or entirely composed of nerve fibers and contain few or no neuronal cell bodies or dendrites.
Synapses, dendrites, dendritic spines (bumps on dendrites where synapses are often found), dendritic arbors (tree-like projections of dendrites), somas (body of neuron), axon hillocks (where a summation of input impulses may initiate an action potential or spike), axons, myelin sheaths (on myelinated axons), and axon terminals (containing vesicles of neurotransmitters).
Axons conduct the nerve impulses. Dendrites receive the impulses. Possible the impulses go through the dendrites faster, though the synaptic cleft may slow this pathway. Dendrites are much shorter than axons.
non-myelinated
Gray matter is primarily composed of cell bodies, dendrites, and glial cells. Cell bodies are the main component, containing the nucleus and organelles of neurons. Dendrites receive signals from other neurons, while glial cells provide support and nutrients to neurons.

The hippocampus is primarily composed of gray matter, which consists of cell bodies, dendrites, and synapses. White matter, on the other hand, is made up of myelinated axons.

the axons of myelinated neurons are embeded in a protective covering of gray matter.
Muscles and glands are not myelinated. It is the axon of a neuron that is myelinated. The myelin forms a layer called myelin sheath that makes the nervous system function properly.
