Nervous tissue forms nerves that vary in length. the flexibility of nerve length allows communication to occur between regions of the body that are very close to each other, or very far away from each other. one example of a very long nerve is the sciatic nerve, which runs from the spinal cord to the toes and is approximately one meter long. which of the following is supported by the passage?

a. only distant regions would communicate using nervous tissue
b. only nearby regions would communicate using nervous tissue
c. both distant and nearby regions would communicate using nervous tissue
d. neither distant nor nearby body regions would communicate using nervous tissue
