Other gray matter structures, like the basal ganglia, are embedded within this white matter core. The brain's fluid-filled ventricles are also found within the white matter. In the spinal cord, things are largely reversed – the white matter is distributed around the central gray matter “butterfly”.

In Brain, the head or centre of the nervous system, the white matter is buried deep in brain, while gray matter is mostly found on the brain surface, or cortex. In Spinal cord, which transmits nerve impulses to and from the rest of the body, has the opposite arrangement, gray matter at it's core with surrounding insulating white matter on the outside.
The 1st attachment is brain structure and 2nd attachment is spinal cord structure.
