The two are made up of nerves, and they work together as a system, so together they are said to comprise the overall nervous system.
The Central Nervous System (CNS) is the command center for the body; the Peripheral Nervous System (PNS) provides the CNS with sensory information, and also conveys activation signals to muscles from the CNS to help the organism move and survive.
The somatic and autonomic nervous systems are part of the peripheral nervous system. The somatic nervous system controls voluntary movements and receives sensory information, while the autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary actions, such as heart rate and digestion.
Skeletal muscles, which are effectors, are involved in somatic reflexes. Somatic reflexes involve voluntary control of skeletal muscles and are part of the somatic nervous system. Autonomic reflexes, on the other hand, involve the control of smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands, and are part of the autonomic nervous system.
The autonomic nervous system regulates involuntary functions like heart rate and digestion, while the somatic nervous system controls voluntary movements. The autonomic nervous system has two branches: the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, which have opposing effects on the body. The somatic nervous system mainly controls skeletal muscle movement through motor neurons.
The two functional classifications of reflexes are autonomic reflexes, which regulate activities of smooth muscle, cardiac muscle, and glands, and somatic reflexes, which involve skeletal muscles. Autonomic reflexes are involuntary and controlled by the autonomic nervous system, while somatic reflexes are voluntary and controlled by the somatic nervous system.
The Motor Division is divided into the Somatic and Autonomic Nervous System. The Somatic Nervous System controls voluntary movements of skeletal muscles, while the Autonomic Nervous System regulates involuntary functions like heart rate and digestion.
somatic is voluntary autonomic is involuntary.
The somatic nervous system is the voluntary part of the brain and it operates under conscious control. The autonomic nervous system is the part of the brain that is involuntary, and that humans have no control over.

how does eating a piece of Pizza involve both the somatic and autonomic nervous system
autonomic
Yes, the somatic nervous system is voluntary. In contrast, the autonomic nervous system is involuntary.

autonomic nervous system
Autonomic is the automatic nervous system eg pain response (something you cannot not control) while the somatic nervous system is the thing we can control.
