  • Nervous Tissue: The Conductor of Electrical Impulses - Definition & Function
    The tissue type that conducts impulses is nervous tissue.

    Here's why:

    * Nervous tissue is specialized for communication. It contains two main cell types:

    * Neurons: These are the primary cells responsible for transmitting signals in the form of electrical impulses.

    * Neuroglia: These support cells provide structural and metabolic support to neurons.

    * Other tissue types have different functions:

    * Epithelial tissue covers surfaces and forms linings.

    * Connective tissue provides support, protection, and insulation.

    * Muscle tissue is responsible for movement.
