Nervous tissue consists of two cells: nerve cells or neurons and glial cells, which helps transmit nerve impulses and also provides nutrients to neurons.

Detailed explanation-5: -Epithelial Cells. These cells are tightly attached to one another. Nerve Cells. These cells are specialized for communication. Muscle Cells. These cells are specialized for contraction. Connective Tissue Cells.
