GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Abstract. The somatic nervous system provides control of skeletal muscle movement. Conscious control of movement originates in the motor cortex (both premotor and primary motor cortex).

Detailed explanation-3: -Reflexes: involuntary movements In addition to regulating the voluntary movements of the body, the somatic nervous system is also responsible for a specific type of involuntary muscle responses known as reflexes, controlled by a neural pathway known as the reflex arc.

Detailed explanation-4: -The somatic nervous system consists of sensory nerves carrying afferent nerve fibers, which relay sensation from the body to the central nervous system (CNS), and motor nerves carrying efferent nerve fibers, which relay motor commands from the CNS to stimulate muscle contraction.

Detailed explanation-5: -The movements your muscles make are coordinated and controlled by the brain and nervous system. The involuntary muscles are controlled by structures deep within the brain and the upper part of the spinal cord called the brain stem.
