cerebral mantle

1. The layer of unmyelinated neurons (the grey matter) forming the cortex of the cerebrum (synset 105494162)
   is a type of: neural structure - a structure that is part of the nervous system
   subtypes:

   • neocortex, neopallium - the cortical part of the neencephalon
   • archipallium, paleocortex - the olfactory cortex of the cerebrum
   has:

   • golgi cell, golgi's cell - a neuron in the cerebral cortex with short dendrites and with either a long axon or a short axon that ramifies in the grey matter
   • cortical area, cortical region - any of various regions of the cerebral cortex
   • frontal cortex, frontal lobe - that part of the cerebral cortex in either hemisphere of the brain lying directly behind the forehead
   • prefrontal cortex, prefrontal lobe - the anterior part of the frontal lobe
   • parietal cortex, parietal lobe - that part of the cerebral cortex in either hemisphere of the brain lying below the crown of the head
   • occipital cortex, occipital lobe - that part of the cerebral cortex in either hemisphere of the brain lying in the back of the head
   • temporal cortex, temporal lobe - that part of the cerebral cortex in either hemisphere of the brain lying inside the temples of the head
   is a part of: cerebrum - anterior portion of the brain consisting of two hemispheres; dominant part of the brain in humans
   substance holonym: gray matter, gray substance, grey matter, grey substance, substantia grisea - greyish nervous tissue containing cell bodies as well as fibers; forms the cerebral cortex consisting of unmyelinated neurons
   same as: cerebral cortex, cortex, pallium
