<span>When light bounces off an object, it either gets absorbed, or reflected. For example, light can get absorbed on surfaces which are black in color and they can reflect from flat surfaces such as a mirror. It all matters on the angle of incidence. The angle of incidence is also known as the angle of reflection.</span></span>

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Somatic motor neurons originate in the central nervous system, project their axons to skeletal muscles (such as the muscles of the limbs, abdominal, and intercostal muscles), which are involved in locomotion.

Explanation:

Muscles move on commands from the brain. Single nerve cells in the spinal cord, called motor neurons, are the only way the brain connects to muscles. When a motor neuron inside the spinal cord fires, an impulse goes out from it to the muscles on a long, very thin extension of that single cell called an axon.
