Which nervous system contains sensory and motor neurons that carry information between the central nervous system and the rest of the body?
A
Autonomic Nervous System
B
Somatic Nervous System
C
Peripheral Nervous System
D
Central Nervous System
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Nerves in the Peripheral Nervous System The PNS is composed of nerves that are responsible for carrying signals between the central nervous system and the parts of the body that lie outside the CNS. This includes information from the senses, organs, and muscles.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The peripheral nervous system (PNS), which consists of the neurons and parts of neurons found outside of the CNS, includes sensory neurons and motor neurons. Sensory neurons bring signals into the CNS, and motor neurons carry signals out of the CNS.
