Nervous tissue is composed of nerves containing neurons, specialized cells. Muscle tissue contains myocytes, which have completely different structure than neurons. Also, muscle is organized in many fibers covered by connective tissue; these fibers build up stronger fibers etc. Neural tissue has different organization.
Nervous tissue is made up of different cells working together to perform a given function -- in this case, to carry messages from one part of the body to another. Different nervous tissues working together make up nervous system organs, such as nerves, the spinal cord, or the brain. These organs work together in the nervous system, a collection of organs performing a body function. So, in sum, the difference between nervous tissue and the nervous system is one of size and scope: nervous tissue makes up nervous organs, which make up the nervous system.
The differences between these two tissue types is nervous tissues use electrical
impulses to carry out their function while on the other hand muscle tissues rely on
contracting of muscles to carry out their functions. Also nerve tissues are formed up from nerve cells called neurons whereas muscles tissues are formed from different types of cells related to their function. Nervous tissues function is to send signals around the body and to communicate within cells whereas muscle tissues function is mainly on movement and protection.

This tissue is very different because this is the only tissue that carries brain signals from the brain to the body.
How is the function of nerve tissue different from that of epithelial tissue?
The two are related in that nervous tissues helps detect stimuli, and muscle tissue helps avoid or embrace it. This is important to animals to be able to avoid dangerous stimuli.
There are four major tissue types: epithelia, connective, muscle and nervous tissue.

Skeletal muscle tissue differs from cardiac tissue in that skeletal muscles are striated muscles that require conscious stimulation to act, and cardiac muscles are smooth and basically run "automatically".
nerve cells make nervous tissue and muscle tissue is made up of muscle cells
Epithelial, Connective, Muscle, and Nervous
Epithelial tissue, Connective tissue, Muscle tissue, Nervous tissue.
it is the muscle tissue
Muscle tissue made up of elongated muscle fibers, fibers that contract in response to stimuli. Nervous Tissue is made up of neurons and neurological cells.
Epithelial Tissue- this tissue covers any bodily surface including organs, body cavities, and glands. There are subcategories of Epithelial Tissue, which are Squamous (pavement) , Simple Columnar, Simple Cuboidal, Glandular, Stratified, and Ciliated Columnar. The main functions of epithelial tissue are sensation, absorption, protection, cleaning, reduction of friction, excretion, diffusion, and secretion. Connective Tissue- this tissue forms blood, cartilage, and bone. It is classified into dense connective, loose connective, reticular, elastic, and adipose. Muscle- contractile tissue that causes movement in an organism as well as internal functions. The three types of muscle tissue are skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. Nervous Tissue- this tissue is responsible for sending and receiving messages from muscle tissue to the brain. Nervous tissue is composed of neurons.
Though sometimes, some people refer to the brain as a muscle, it really is not a muscle. It is made of completely different types of tissues than a muscle. There are four kinds of tissues in the body; connective tissue, epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue. The brain is made entirely of nervous tissue and contains no muscle tissue what-so-ever.
Brain is made of nervous tissue, not muscle.
