Which nervous system controls the voluntary function of the limbs and the sense organs?

The muscle fibers are functionally organized as motor units. A motor unit consists of a single motor neuron and all of the muscle fibers it innervates.Whole muscles exhibit characteristics that are more complex than those of individual muscle fibers or motor units. Instead of responding in an all-or-none fashion, whole muscles respond to stimuli in a graded fashion, which means that the strength of the contractions can range from weak to strong.
