Does the nervous system transmit information that tells your muscle and otherinternal organs how to react?

The nervous system does not tell muscles how to react. The nerves transmit electrical pulses that make muscles contract. Different nerves attached to different muscles strands control how a muscle reacts. For example, nerves going to some arm muscles when they contract may make your elbow bend. Nerves going to a different set of muscles when made to contract may make your arm straighten out at the elbow. Using all muscles in that area allows you to maintain a bent elbow in a specific position.
