• Skeletal
• Unbranched striated multinucleate looooong
• Smooth
• Unbranched unstriated uninucleate
• Cardiac
• Branched striated intercalated discs

Characteristics of muscle

• Contractile it shortens
• Excitable receives responds to electrical
  signals
• Extensible stretches
• Elastic Returns to original length after
  extending

Neural Tissue

• Specialized tissue for the conduction of
  information consists of brain, spinal cord, and
  nerves
• Cells that are found in neural tissue
• Neurons
• Neuroglia cells (supporting)
• The glue that holds neurons together

Distribution

• Brain
• Spinal cord
• Peripheral nerve tracts
• Neuromuscular junctions
• Modified sensory epithelial cells
