Conducting cells, primarily found in plants, are located in the vascular tissue known as xylem and phloem. Xylem conducting cells, such as tracheids and vessel elements, transport water and nutrients from the roots to other parts of the plant. Phloem conducting cells, including sieve tube elements and companion cells, transport sugars and other organic compounds throughout the plant. These cells are essential for the plant's growth and nutrient distribution.
Groups of conducting cells are called bundles. These bundles help to efficiently conduct electrical signals through tissues in the body.

Xylem (water-conducting cells) are dead (no cytoplasm), and form long tubes called vessels (no end walls) The walls are thickened with ligninPhloem (food transport cells) are living (have cytoplasm) There are two cell types - sieve tubes which conduct the food - they have end walls with perforations (sieve plates) and have no nucleus and companion cells - they don't conduct food but have a nucleus and they support the sieve tubes
Animal cells specialized for conducting electrochemical impulses are known as neurons. Neurons have unique structures such as dendrites, axons, and synapses that allow for the transmission of electrical signals within the nervous system.
A conducting strand in phloem is a specialized structure made up of sieve tube elements and companion cells. These cells work together to transport sugars, hormones, and other organic materials throughout the plant. Conducting strands are part of the plant's vascular system and play a crucial role in long-distance transport of nutrients.
Neurons are impulse conducting cells that process properties of excitability and conductibility.
Groups of conducting cells are called bundles. These bundles help to efficiently conduct electrical signals through tissues in the body.
Neurons are conducting cells in the nervous system and neuroglia do not conduct, but are helper cells to the neurons.

Some examples of plant cells are : Parenchyma Cells, Collenchyma Cells, Sclerenchyma Cells, and water conducting cells. Animal cells are nerve cells, muscle cells, and skin cells.
