Detailed explanation-1: -Sensory: Connects the brain and spinal cord to your skin and allow you to feel pain and other sensations. Autonomic: Controls involuntary function (e.g., blood pressure, digestion, heart rate). Motor: Connects the brain and spinal cord to muscles to stimulate movement.
Detailed explanation-2: -The somatic nervous system consists of both afferent (sensory) and efferent (motor) nerves [1]. It is also responsible for the reflex arc, which involves the use of interneurons to perform reflexive actions. Besides these, there are thousands of other association nerves in the body.
