The Nervous tissue is a specialized type of tissue found in the nervous system, including the brain, spinal cord, and nerves. It is responsible for orchestrating our thoughts, sensations, and movements by transmitting electrical and chemical signals throughout the body.Here are examples of nervous tissues:
1. 𝐌𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐮𝐦
The cerebellum is a brain structure that plays a crucial role in coordinating voluntary muscle movements, balance, and posture. It acts like a conductor, ensuring smooth movements and maintaining equilibrium.2. 𝐂𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐮𝐦 𝐇&𝐄 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧
The H&E stained section of the cerebellum helps scientists identify different cell types and understand their organization within this brain region.3. 𝐇𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐱.𝐬.
The spinal cord is a vital part of the central nervous system, transmitting sensory information from the body to the brain and motor commands from the brain to muscles and organs. It serves as a communication highway.4. 𝐒𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜 𝐆𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐥.𝐬.
Sympathetic ganglia are clusters of nerve cell bodies located alongside the spinal cord. They are part of the autonomic nervous system and regulate functions like heart rate, blood pressure, and digestion.5. 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐲, 𝐕𝐞𝐢𝐧, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐍𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞 𝐜.𝐬.
This cross-section shows an artery, a vein, and a nerve bundled together. Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart, veins return deoxygenated blood to the heart, and nerves transmit electrical signals between body parts.6. 𝐍𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞 𝐅𝐢𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝
Nerve fibers, or axons are responsible for transmitting signals over long distances, forming the communication network within the nervous system.𝐑𝐞𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬
