White matter of the spinal cord is a component of the central nervous system that forms a bulk of the deep parts of the brain and the superficial parts of the spinal cord. The white matter is white because it contains a fatty substance (myelin) which surrounds the nerve fibers.
White matter consist mostly of glial cells and myelinated axons that acts as an electrical insulation which transmit signals from one region of the cerebrum to another and also between the cerebrum and the lower brain centers. White matter do not contain dendrites which are found only in the Greg matter along with neural cell bodies and shorter axons.
Bundles of axons that share common origins, destinations and functions.
Explanation:
White matter is an important component of the spinal cord and brain that form the nervous system. It is composed of myelinated axons and they connect grey matter of the brain to each other and also carry nerve impulses or signals to the neurons. The white matter has myelin, a fatty substance that surrond the axon and this is provide electrical insulation.
