Final answer:
The claim that the entire cortex from the capsule to the nucleus becomes white and opaque is false, as in the kidney the cortex is lighter and in the brain, the cortex consists of gray matter with white matter lying deeper within.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question refers to a condition where the cortex from the capsule to the nucleus becomes white and opaque. If this statement is related to the kidney, it would be false because within a dissected kidney the cortex is seen as a lighter color compared to the rest of the kidney. In contrast, if this pertains to the brain, the statement could also be false because the outer cortex of the brain consists of gray matter, while white matter is found deeper within, such as in the corpus callosum. The question seems to conflate the term 'cortex' which applies to many organs with different functions and properties. Thus, the answer to the question "The entire cortex from the capsule to the nucleus becomes white and opaque." is false.
