Nervous tissue is composed mainly of neurons, which transmit nerve impulses, and glia, which support and protect neurons. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts are related to bone - not nervous tissue. Stem and somatic cells are broad cell types not specific to nervous tissue. Lymphocytes and erythrocytes are blood cells. Hepatocytes are liver cells and chondrocytes are cartilage cells.
