Human nerves are primarily conducting tissues. They contain specialized cells called neurons that transmit electrical signals through the movement of ions across their membranes. The myelin sheath, which insulates some nerve fibers, enhances the speed of signal conduction by allowing the electrical impulses to jump between nodes of Ranvier. Therefore, while nerves have insulating properties, their main function is to conduct signals efficiently.
