How do nervous tissues coordinate bodily functions?
Nervous tissues are composed of neurons and supporting cells called glial cells. Neurons transmit electrical impulses that coordinate various physiological processes. The central nervous system (CNS), consisting of the brain and spinal cord, processes information and generates responses. The peripheral nervous system (PNS) carries signals to and from the CNS to the rest of the body. This complex network ensures that organs and systems function harmoniously.
