The ganglion vesicle may be circumscribed, or be continued into a nerve-fibre, or into two nerve-fibres from opposite poles of tlie vesicle ; it is termed ac- cordingly 'apolar,' 'unipolar,' and ' bi-polar: ' the last is the most common form, the first probably a c'cnctic stase. When a ffan- glion-ccU is connected by more than two processes with nerves, it is a ' multipolar cell:' these are most common in the ganglia of the main cord of the symjDa- thetic; the bipolar cells prevail in the ganglia of the posterior roots of the spinal nerves, fig. 201. The nerve-fibres in ganglions consist of the ' white' or Jjroadcr kind,and of the 'grey'or finer kind; there are also still more minute but solid or homogeneous fibres, surrounding and connecting the true nervous constituents of the ganglion. A nerve on entering a ganglion breaks up into its component fibres, which interlace about the ganglion-cells, some- times winding roimd them, with plexiform interchanges of fibres from other entering nerves and from the cells.
