Question

where is the fasciculus gracilis on each side of the spinal cord found?
lateral white column
dorsal white column
ventral white column
dorsal grey horn

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The fasciculus gracilis is a part of the dorsal white column. It is involved in transmitting sensory information related to fine touch, vibration, and proprioception from the lower body. The dorsal white column (also known as the posterior white column) is one of the three white matter columns (the others being the lateral and ventral white columns) in the spinal cord. The dorsal grey horn is part of the grey matter (which is involved in processing information, not in tracts like the fasciculus gracilis which is white matter - composed of myelinated axons).

Answer:

B. Dorsal white column
