Answer 1

Answer:

Plz mark as brainliest

Explanation:

The type of fat in myelin makes it look white, so myelin-dense white matter takes on a white hue as well. In contrast, gray matter is mostly neuron cell bodies and non-neuron brain cells called glial cells. ... White matter is buried deep in the brain, while gray matter is mostly found on the brain's surface, or cortex.
