The cerebral cortex is gray matter, consisting mainly of cell bodies (with astrocytes being the most abundant cell type in the cortex as well as the human brain as a whole) and capillaries. It contrasts with the underlying white matter, consisting mainly of the white myelinated sheaths of neuronal axons.n large mammals, the cerebral cortex is folded, giving a much greater surface area in the confined volume of the skull. A fold or ridge in the cortex is termed a gyrus (plural gyri) and a groove or fissure is termed a sulcus (plural sulci).
blob : BLOB (Binary Large Object) is a large object data type in the database system. BLOB could store a large chunk of data, document types and even media files like audio or video files. BLOB fields allocate space only whenever the content in the field is utilized. BLOB allocates spaces in Giga Bytes.
Similar units Edit. The blob or slinch (a portmanteau of the words slug and inch) is an inch version of the slug (1 slinch = 1 lb f Â·s 2 /in = 12 slugs).Slang terms for the slinch include the slugette. Metric units include the glug in the centimeter-gram-second system, and the mug, par, or MTE in the meter-kilogram-second system.he name slug, as a unit of inertia, was coined before 1900 by British physicist Arthur Mason Worthington, but it did not see any significant use until decades later. A 1928 textbook says: No name has yet been given to the unit of mass and, in fact, as we have developed the theory of dynamics no name is necessary.
