What system consist of sensory and motor neurons associated with voluntary actions?

The somatic nervous system consists of sensory and motor neurons that are associated with voluntary actions. Sensory neurons transmit sensory information from the body to the central nervous system, while motor neurons transmit signals from the central nervous system to muscles to initiate movement. This system allows for conscious control over skeletal muscle movement.


What are the structures and functions of the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system?

The central nervous system is the control center of the body. It includes the brain and spinal cord.There are three main regions of the brain that receive and process information: the cerebrum, the cerebellum, and the brain stem. The spinal cord is the link between your brain and the peripheral nervous system.The second division of the nervous system is the peripheral nervous system.The peripheral nervous system consists of a network of nerves that branch out from the central nervous system and connect it to the rest of the body. The peripheral nervous system is involved in both involuntary and ­voluntary actions.


How does the somatic nervous system differ from the autonomic 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).
