1. Nerve cells (neurons): These cells are specialized for transmitting electrical signals throughout the body. The excitable membrane allows for rapid changes in membrane potential, enabling the generation and propagation of action potentials.
2. Muscle cells: These cells are responsible for movement. The excitable membrane in muscle cells allows for the reception of signals from neurons, triggering muscle contraction.
While other cells in the body might exhibit some degree of electrical activity, they don't have the same specialized membrane properties for rapid and coordinated changes in membrane potential like nerve and muscle cells.
