What is Understanding Excitable Tissues about?

The document discusses excitable tissues, specifically nerves. Nerves are composed of neurons which transmit electrical signals and have dendrites, a cell body, and an axon. The resting membrane potential of a neuron is maintained around -70 mV by the sodium-potassium pump and concentration gradients. When a stimulus causes the membrane potential to depolarize and reach the threshold potential, an action potential is generated and propagated along the axon.
