'''Nervous tissue''' is one of the four major classes of [[vertebrate]] [[tissue]] (the other three being [[Epithelium]], connective tissue and muscle tissue). Nervous tissue is the primary means that an organism has of exchanging information or commands between various [[organs]] and other tissues.  It is divided into two categories: the first is [[neurons]] and the second is [[neuroglial]]. Neurons make up the functional form of the tissue   most of the communication and integration of information occurs with neuronal tissue. Neuroglial primarily provide structural and metabolic support for the neurons. However, some parts of the neuroglial aid in neuronal communication by insulating the [[axons]] that propagate the [[electrical impulse]] allowing for faster transfer of information.
