The '''spinal cord''' contains the ''[[Spinal Cord - Anatomy & Physiology#Marginal_layer|marginal layer]]'' which has axons and white matter, the ''[[Spinal Cord - Anatomy & Physiology#Mantle|mantle]]''' which contains cell bodies and grey matter and the ''[[Spinal Cord - Anatomy & Physiology#Spinal_Canal|spinal canal]]''. This canal conducts sensory information from the peripheral nervous system (both somatic and autonomic) to the brain, conducts motor information from the brain to various effectors and acts as a minor reflex center.
