Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Your somatic nervous system is a subdivision of your peripheral nervous system that stretches throughout nearly every part of your body. The nerves in this system deliver information from your senses to your brain. They also carry commands from your brain to your muscles so you can move around.

Detailed explanation-2: -The brain and spinal cord are responsible for processing and integrating the various sources of information to allow us to develop a response. Therefore the main function of the somatic nervous system is to connect the CNS with organs and striated muscle to perform our daily functions.

Detailed explanation-3: -The somatic nervous system, also called the somatomotor or somatic efferent nervous system, supplies motor impulses to the skeletal muscles. Because these nerves permit conscious control of the skeletal muscles, it is sometimes called the voluntary nervous system.

Detailed explanation-4: -For example, sensory neurons send information from the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin to the brain. Motor neurons carry messages away from the brain to the rest of the body.

Detailed explanation-5: -Spinal nerves: They are mixed nerves that carry sensory information into and motor commands out of the spinal cord. Cranial nerves: They are the nerve fibers that carry information into and out of the brain stem.
