Write a note on Nervous tissue or Neural tissue

Explanation

Neural tissue exerts the greatest control over the body’s responsiveness to changing conditions. Neurons, the unit of neural system are excitable cells.

The neurological cell which constitute the rest of the neural system protect and support neurons. Neuroglia make up more than one-half the volume of neural tissue in our body. When a neuron is suitably stimulated, an electrical disturbance is generated, which swiftly travels along its plasma membrane. Arrival of the disturbance at the neuron’s endings or output zone triggers events that may cause stimulation or inhibition of adjacent neurons and other cells.
