Answer:
The correct answer would be Sensory somatic nervous system—controls skeletal muscles.
Somatic nervous system is a part of peripheral nervous system which controls the movement of skeletal muscles or voluntary movements.
It connects the skeletal system with central nervous system.
It comprises of two types of nerves:
- Afferent nerves: These are also termed as sensory nerves and carry stimulus from receptors to the central nervous system.
- Efferent nerves: These are also known as motor nerves and they carry commands or response from the central nervous system to the effector organs. It leads to the contraction of the muscle and thus results in voluntary movement.
