The nerve tissue, also known as nervous tissue, is the major component of our nervous system. It keeps track of and regulates the body’s functions. Nervous tissue makes up the brain, spinal cord, and nerves, which are specialized for being stimulated to carry stimuli from one part of the body to another rapidly. The CNS and PNS of the nervous system are made up of nervous tissue. Nervous tissue made up of two types of cells: neurons and glial cells. Dendrites, cell body, axon, and nerve terminals make up the dendrites. Chemical neurotransmitters are secreted by neurons and are responsible for activating other neurons in response to stimuli. Synapsis is the presence of specialization at axonal terminals. Nerve cells have a lengthy lifespan and cannot be divided or replaced (except memory cells)
