A somatic reflex is where the body responds to stimulus. The message from the stimulus is sent through the central nervous system via the spine, and from there it travels to the brain.
in the CNS
The reflex that takes messages from the Central Nervous System (CNS) is known as a motor reflex. In this process, sensory neurons transmit signals from the body to the CNS, where the information is processed. The CNS then sends a response through motor neurons, which carry the message back to the muscles or glands, resulting in a reflex action. This rapid response helps to protect the body from harm and maintain homeostasis.
Reflexes are rapid involuntary responses to a given stimuli. The reflex pathway that only has one synapse in the CNS is called the monosynaptic reflex arc.
The simplest level of CNS function is the reflex arc. It involves a sensory neuron detecting a stimulus and sending a signal to the spinal cord, which then immediately sends a signal back through a motor neuron to produce a response, without involving the brain.
An autonomic reflex arc is similar to the somatic kind, but differs principally in the motor output side. The sensory side is similar in that a transducer sends a signal via a nerve fiber into the CNS. As with the somatic arc, this sensory fiber is associated with a pseudo-unipolar neuron in a craniospinal ganglion, usually one of the dorsal root ganglia. In the autonomic arc, the sensory transducer is often located in or associated with visceral organs.

Neurons that carry signals from the central nervous system (CNS) to skeletal muscles are known as somatic motor neurons. These neurons are responsible for controlling voluntary movements of the body by transmitting signals that stimulate muscle contractions.
The stimulus is detected by temperature or pain receptors in the skin. These generate impulses in sensory neurons. The impulses enter the CNS ( Central nervous system ) through a part of the spinal nerve called the Dorsal root.
