Medulla - Slide 56

Nerve Tissue - Central Nervous System

Spinal Cord - Middle increase

Medulla - Nerve Tissue - Central Nervous System with:

- Pia mater

>Gray matter: (1 and 2)

- Neurons Bodies ( Red circles)

- Myelinated Nerve Fibers

- Unmyelinated Nerve Fibers

- Glial Cells

- Myelinated Nerve Fibers

- Glial Cells

Legend:

Black Circle - Spinal Canal, lined by ependymal cells, responsible for the transport and production of cerebrospinal fluid (or CSF).

Red Circle - Starring Neuron or Motor, whose presence indicates the ventral (anterior) horns of the gray matter.

Rectangle Black - Dorsal (posterior) horns of the gray matter.

1 - the ventral (anterior) horns of the medulla.

2 - the dorsal (posterior) horns of the medulla.

3 - the dorsal (posterior) Cord of the medulla.

4 - the ventral (anterior) Cord of the medulla.
