Somatic nervous system
The somatic nervous system controls the voluntary movement of skeletal muscles, such as when you move your arm. The autonomic nervous systems controls the involuntary actions of internal organs and glands. The beating of your heart is controlled by this system. The autonomic nervous system is further broken up into two parts: the sympathetic, which controls arousal (think fight-or-flight), and the parasympathetic, which controls calming (think rest and digest).

Voluntary muscles are skeletal muscles (under somatic control) and involuntary muscles involve the heart, smooth muscles and anything under autonomic control.
Somatic, or voluntary, nerves connect to skeletal muscles refers to the conscious control of skeletal muscles.
I believe the answer is skeletal muscles.
The nervous system is comprised of two parts, somatic and autonomic. The somatic nervous system is the control over your skeletal muscles. It is voluntary. The autonomic system works automatically. It has system wide effects known as sympathetic (fight or flight) and parasympathetic (rest and digest).
No, a somatic reflex are the reflexes of the skeletal muscle movements. The gag reflex is considered to be an autonomic reflex.
yes, the knee relfex felt when tapped just below the knee cap on the patellar tendon is a somatic reflex which is a contraction of skeletal muscles. the opposite would be autonomic relfexes which consist of contractions of smooth or cardiac muscle or secretion by glands.
This particular reflex is autonomic as the affected muscle, constrictor pupillae muscle, is a smooth muscle and not under conscious control. Typically if you can consciously contract the muscle, any reflex associated with that muscle is somatic in nature.

Ankle jerk is somatic. It is the reflex action, in which the afferent. connecting and the efferent neurons are involved. Autonomic nerves do not supply the striated muscles.
