What type of nervous tissue that conducts a nerve impulse?

The nervous tissue that conducts a nerve impulse is called "neural tissue" or "nervous tissue". It is composed of neurons, also called nerve cells, and supporting cells called neuroglia. Neurons are specialized cells that receive, process, and transmit information through electrical and chemical signals called nerve impulses. When a neuron receives a signal, it generates an electrical impulse called an action potential, which travels along its axon, a long, slender projection of the neuron. The action potential causes the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft, the space between the neuron and the target cell. Neurotransmitters bind to receptors on the target cell, which may be another neuron, a muscle cell, or a gland cell, and trigger a response.
