text: Because axons in the grey matter are mainly unmyelinated, the greyish hue of the neurons and glial cells combine with the red of the capillaries to give this tissue its greyish-pink color (after which it is named).
text: Axons surrounded by a myelin sheath are called myelinated axons or myelinated nerve fibers.

text: Characteristically gray matter predominantly consists of nerve cell bodies whose nuclei lend the tissue a gray appearance in section, whereas white matter is composed mainly of myelinated axons, its name stemming from the pearly white appearance of the insulating myelin.
text: The main difference between gray and white matter is that axons of the neurons in gray matter are unmyelinated, while white matter is myelinated.
