Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The grey matter also extends from the brain into the spinal cord. The grey matter creates a hornlike structure throughout the inside of the spinal cord while the white matter makes up the surrounding sections of the spinal cord.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your cerebral cortex is gray because that section of the nerve lacks the fatty covering material called myelin.
