These contain cell bodies of neurons:
Correct answer: B. Ganglia and gray matter
- A. Gray and white matter
- B. Ganglia and gray matter
- C. Nerve and ganglia
- D. Nerve and white matter
Explanation
The cell bodies of neurons are found in the gray matter of the central nervous system (CNS) and the ganglia of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). In the CNS, the cell bodies of neurons are found in the cerebral cortex, the thalamus, the hypothalamus, the brainstem, and the spinal cord. In the PNS, the cell bodies of neurons are found in the ganglia, which are clusters of neurons located outside the CNS.

About Coordination and Control
Coordination depends on receptors, neurons, synapses and nerve impulses, with reflex actions traced through the reflex arc and the roles of major brain regions. Chemical coordination covers endocrine glands and hormones, including how hormones regulate growth, metabolism, reproduction and internal balance, unlike rapid nervous control.
