Question
what are the two types of cells found in nervous tissue?
nissl bodies and neuroglial cells
neuroglial cells and neurons
neurons and axons
axons and nissl bodies
Nervous tissue is composed of two main types of cells. Neurons are the functional units that transmit nerve impulses. Neuroglial cells (also known as glial cells) support, protect, and nourish neurons. Nissl bodies are part of neurons (they are rough endoplasmic reticulum in neuron cell bodies), and axons are part of the neuron's structure (a long - slender projection of a neuron).
