Answer:
The Nervous tissue consists of neutron cells.
✧ Function :
These cells are specialised to transmit the stimuli received from external or internal agents to different body parts and brain.
✧ Location :
The Nervous tissue occurs in brain, spinal cord and sense organs.
The neuron or nerve cell is the longest cell known and is made of three parts :
- Cyton (the cell body) : The cell body contains nucleus of the nerve cell. Neurofibrils which are responsible used for transmission of impulses from one neuron to another, occur here.
- Dendrites : These are small branched projections growing out of the cyton. their main function is to transmit the impulse to the cell body. Large dendrites are called dendrons.
- Axon : Axon is a long and uniformly thick cylindrical process growing out of a cell body. Its main function is to transmit nerve impulse away from the cell body. Fine branches are seen at the terminal end of the axon.
