The Confederates won a decisive victory in the Second Battle of Manassas (also called Second Bull Run). Pope hammered against Jackson's Corps, which was well-entrenched in a g â¦ ood defensive position. Completely unknown to Pope, Longstreet's Corps came up and took position on Pope's flank.
1 Medullary body: 2  the 'white matter' of the cerebrum; consists of myelinated axons. 3  types of axons include: 4  commissural fibers-conduct impulses between cerebral hemispheres (and form the corpus callosum). 5  projection fibers-conduct impulses in & out of the cerebral hemispheres.ike the brain, the spinal cord consists of gray matter and white matter. The gray matter (cell bodies & synapses) of the cord is located centrally & is surrounded by white matter (myelinated axons).
The brain is divided into the right and left hemisphere, and the two halves are connected by the corpus callosum. This bundle of nerve tissue contains over 200 million axons (nerve fibers that carry electrical impulses from neuronsâ cell bodies) by rough estimate. This neural tissue facilitates communication between the two sides of the brain. The corpus callosum is the largest collection of white matter within the brain, and it has a high myelin content. Myelin is a fatty, protective coating around nerves that facilitates quicker transmission of information. White matter should not be confused with gray matter.
