Full Question:
The spinal cord and brain include regions called "nuclei." These are areas where synapses generally occur and consist of:
A) Oligodendrocytes
B) Axons of Spinal and Cranial Nerves
C) Cluster of Neuronal Cell bodies
D) Schwann Cell
E) Ganglia
Answer:
The correct answer is C)
The Nuclei consists of a cluster of Neuronal Cell Bodies.
Step-by-step explanation:
The study of the anatomy of the nervous system shows that the nuclei (which is the plural form of nucleus) is a cluster of neurons in the central nervous system located deep within the cerebral hemispheres and the brainstem.
Tracts, bundles (fascicles) of nerve fibers (also called axons) protruding from the body of the cell help connect nuclei to other nuclei.
