What type of tissue is composed of neurons?

Muscle
Nerve
Connective
Epithelial

The correct answer is: Nerve

The correct answer is nerve tissue, which is specifically made up of neurons. Neurons are specialized cells that transmit nerve impulses, allowing for communication between different parts of the body. This tissue plays a crucial role in the functioning of the nervous system, facilitating processes such as sensation, reflexes, and motor control. In contrast to nerve tissue, muscle tissue is responsible for movement and is made up of muscle fibers that contract. Connective tissue serves to support and bind other tissues and organs, and includes various types such as bone and adipose tissue. Epithelial tissue forms the protective outer layer of the body and lines organs and cavities, serving functions like absorption, secretion, and sensation. Each of these tissue types has distinct characteristics and roles that differentiate them from nerve tissue.
