Only nerve cells do not form layers. These also remain structurally separate from each other. Nerve cells or neurons are the cells specialized to conduct an electrochemical current. Nerve tissue is made up of these cells and supporting cells. Epithelial tissue is made of one or a few layers of compactly arranged cells overlying a basement membrane. Glands are epithelial cells specialized to elaborate and release chemicals for use in the body. Muscle tissue is made of elongated and contractile cells called myocytes.
