Neurones are specialised cells able to react to stimuli by sending a signal (known as the nerve impulse) down a long strand of cells known as the Axon

Nervous tissue is the most vital part of the nervous system which comprises the spinal cord, brain and peripheral nervous system. It forms a long line of chains which link together different nerves to the spinal cord connected to the brain

# data[].attributes.body
The Axon of many neurones are coated with a protective fatty layer called the myelin sheath. It insulates axons and enhances transmission of impulses

Glial cells replicate throughout life, unlike the nerve cell. There are four types: astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, ependymal cells and microglia. They bind and insulate neurones and some are PHAGOCYTIC - protect from bacterial invasion by binding blood vessels to the neurones

Dendrites are finger like branches that bring signals to the brain, axons carry signals away from the brain eg. When you feel stimuli in your finger (ie. heat) the sensory impulse sends message to the brain and back to your fingers to process the impulse to move.

Cell body of neurone forms the grey matter and is found at the centre of the spinal cord and periphery of the brain. Axons and dendrites extend from the cell and form the white matter of the brain

Nervous tissue includes cells that don’t transmit impulses - Glial cells

# data[].attributes.body
Neurones consist of 3 parts: DENDRITES, CELL BODY & AXON

Nervous tissue found in the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM in the brain and spinal cord, as protective nerve cells (Glia cells) and PERIPHERAL NERVOUS SYSTEM (Schwann cells) found in the rest of the body
