Neural tissue
Neural tissue exerts the greatest control over the body’s responsiveness to changing conditions.
Neurons, the unit of neural system are excitable cells and the neuroglial cell which constitute the rest of the neural system protect and support neurons.
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, cause stimulation or inhibition of adjacent neurons and other cell.
