Nervous Tissue (100X). Two basic types of cells are found in nervous tissue. Neurons are large cells that function to conduct impulses from one part of the nervous system to another (example: from the spinal cord to the brain).Neuroglia are small cells that glue the neurons together (they have many other functions as well).ervous Tissue (100X).

Mesenchyme, also known as mucous connective tissue or mucoid connective tissue,[1] is a type of connective tissue found mostly during development of the embryo.[2] It is composed mainly of ground substance with few cells or fibers. It can also be referred to as a group of mucoproteins found in certain types of cysts (etc.), resembling mucus.
Students often mix-up the terms mesoderm (middle layer) with mesenchyme (embryonic connective tissue). It is true that mesoderm initially does have a mesenchymal cellular organisation, but can also form a range of epithelial structures (surrounding somites, mesothelium lining of body cavities).
