Nervous tissue is specialized for communication and consists of neurons and glial cells. The organization of layers in the nervous system can be seen in the brain and spinal cord:
1. Cerebral Cortex: The outer layer of the brain, composed of six distinct layers of neurons, each with specific functions. 2. Spinal Cord: Has a central canal surrounded by gray matter (organized into dorsal and ventral horns) and white matter (organized into columns).
