White matter in the spinal cord is named as such because of it's paler color than the other areas which are darker (gray matter). The light color is due to the presence of myelin, a fatty substance which speeds up the rate that electrical impulses travel to and fro the neurons.
Spinal white matter is separated into ascending and descending tracts organized as vertical columns within the cord. There are many names for these specific tracts, usually based upon where the signals traveling in a specific column began, and where it leads to. Such as the Spino-Thalamic tract, which starts in the spinal cord and travels to the Thalamus of the brain. This gives us a uni-directional flow of information, from bottom (spine) to top (brain), so the Spino-Thalamic tract is an ascending column of white nerves.
On the other hand, the Cerebro-Spinal tract descends, from the cerebral of the brain down the spinal cord to reach different parts of the body.

Affirmative, that is correct.
A genetic disorder is nothing more than an abnormal occurrence in a genome, which means that if you change DNA you'll change the genome, and if the change isn't acceptable, genetic disorders can occur easily.
Genetic disorders is a fun field within genetics, and it isn't easy. The functioning of a gene might be an easy concept now a days, but we haven't mastered it. For example, it's not like maths:
- Somebody comes up with a new, unsolved problem, and tries to solve it, and while doing that, the person can create laws, theorems, equations, etc.
Once you come up against a genetic disorder (you can't just create a genetic disorder to study it) you have to study the genetic disorder itself, what caused it and why.
Hope it helped,

The endocrine
system is the system that comprises all the glands in the body, from the hypothalamus
pituitary, pineal, thymus, thyroid, parathyroid, adrenal glands, testes and
ovaries. These organ glands mentioned are just the few major glands in the
body. Moreover, take note of the hypothalamus which is responsible for many
functions such as hunger, thirst and other simple urges, that also regulates
the pituitary gland. How does your endocrine conserve body water? By
controlling and regulating your water intake and outtake, ensuring the amount
of electrolytes is efficient. Your hypothalamus is responsible for water
balance hence, it participates in one of the many functions such as regulating
the sweat glands excretion of sweat which is by the process of osmosis promoting
skin-temperature homeostasis.
