hi jeeva
our central nervous system has two types of tissues: grey matter and white matter
Grey matter, which has a pinkish-grey color in the living brain, contains the cell bodies, dendrites and axon terminals of neurons
White matter is made of axons connecting different parts of grey matter to each other.
i hope it clears your doubt
thanks and approve my answer
regards sahil
please post if you are unable to understanf anything

Hello Jeeva,
The colour describes the presence and absence of myelinated sheet on neuron .
Myelinated neurons appears white in colour and
non myelinated appears grey.

In brain the grey matter contains most of neuronal cell bodies (Cyton) only.
White matter is a component of the central nervous system.
The brain consists mostly glial cells and myelinated axons that transmit signals from one region of cerebrum to another and between the cerebrum and lower brain centers fastly.
