YOUR BRAIN'S AMAZING MYELINATED
NERVE FIBER PROJECTIONS

MYELINATED NERVE FIBER PROJECTIONS

YOUR MYELINATED NERVE FIBER PROJECTIONS
  1. Cerebral cortex

  2. White matter

  3. Myelinated fibers

  4. Cerebeller "Tree of Life"

  5. Internal capsule

  6. Cranial nerves

  7. Corona radiata
    Your myelinated nerve fiber projections are organized into "nerve tracts" just below your cerebrum in the "white matter" of your cerebral cortex.

    The "nerve fibers" pass through the upper part of your brain stem and then fan out and extend to your cerebral cortex where they TRANSMIT nerve impulses through your brain stem TO your cerebral cortex and then SEND THEM BACK AGAIN to your brain stem!
