Histology Art (MT 30 – I) 4 years, 3 months ago Nervous tissue is one of the four major classes of tissues. It is a specialized tissue that can be found in both the central and peripheral nervous systems.The brain, spinal cord, and nerves all include Nervous Tissues. It is in charge of coordinating and controlling various bodily functions. It promotes muscle contraction, raises environmental awareness, and is involved in emotions, memory, and thinking. To perform all of this, Nervous tissue cells must be able to communicate with one another via electrical nerve impulses. Neurons or nerve cells are the cells in nervous tissue that create and conduct impulses.References:
