The body tissue that has fibers that react to stimuli is called the "nervous tissue". The nervous tissue is composed of neurons or nerve cells that receive and transmit impulses and the "neuroglia" that help to transmit nerve impulses and also provide nutrition for the nerve cells.

Nervous tissue contains cells that send and receive electrochemical signals.
Non-conducting support cells of the nervous system or 'Neuroglial' cells represent a range of cells which function to maintain the nervous system. Some common ones are: Astrocytes envolved in providing nutrients and creating the blood-brain barrier Microglia are the immune cells of the nervous system Oligodendricytes and Schwann Cells produce the myelin sheaths which insulate the axons of neurons Ependymal cells secrete cerebrospinal fluid That's just a few

No. The brain is made up of nervous tissue, which is composed of specialized cells called neurons. Muscle tissue is composed of myocytes, or "muscle cells", which have a different organization, structure and function than nervous tissue.
The tissue in the spinal cord is composed of nervous tissue.

nerve cells are everywhere! for example, you get inched and it hurts. the pain sends signals to your brain. your brain then causes you to react...by saying OUCH!!! When the signals get sent to your brain, your brain tells them how to react...you bbleed, your brain tells the affected area to create a scab.

Nervous tissue is composed of neurons and supporting cells called neuroglial. The neuroglial are unspecialized cells and are able to perform supporting functions unlike the neurons which are used in key functions.
Brain tissues are made of neurons (cells) which together form nervous tissue.The brain is made of neurons, which are long, thin cells with tentacles that can be up to a meter long. There are also up to 50 billion other non-neural cells, such as cells that line the BBB [the blood brain barrier, which prevents encephalitis, or infection and subsequent inflammation of the brain].
Nervous tissue consists mainly of nerve cells and glial cells. Glial cells are the most abundant cell types in the central nervous system.
nerve cells make nervous tissue and muscle tissue is made up of muscle cells
neurons are just the cells that make up the nervous tissue.
