Which cells do not form a layer and remain structurally separate : -Epithelial and gland cells are packed closely into layers, and muscle cells form bundles and sheets.
Nerve cells (neurons) are structurally separate units. They do not form a continuous layer, and they are not even in direct cytoplasmic contact with each other; they communicate across synapses (small gaps).
So nerve cells do not form a layer and remain structurally separate.
