How does the somatic nervous system allow people and animals to interact with their surroundings?

The somatic nervous system (SNS) is the part of the peripheral nervous system[1] associated with the voluntary control of body movements through the action of skeletal muscles, and with reception of external stimuli, which helps keep the body in touch with its surroundings (e.g., touch, hearing, and sight).



The system includes all the neurons connected with skeletal muscles, skin and sense organs. The somatic nervous system consists of efferent nerves responsible for sending brain signals for muscle contraction.
