Solution

Nervous tissue is composed of highly specialized cells known as neurons, that specialize in getting rapidly stimulated and transmitting signals at a very fast rate from one part of the body to another. The signal transmission occurs in form of electrical or chemical signals between the neurons. So, neurons are the basic structural and functional unit of nervous system.
