| Question | Answer |
| Identify the tissue | Neuron Part of the Nervous System Receives and transmits signals |
| Identify the tissue | Neuroglia Supports the neurons Does not conduct signals Protects, support, maintain equilibrium of the nervous tissue environment |
| Identify the tissue | Skeletal muscle Can contract and relax Moves the skeleton Voluntary (under conscious control) |
| Identify the tissue | Cardiac muscle Only found in the heart wall Not under conscious control Contains intrinsic pacemaker system (heart beats without external nerve stimulation) |
