receptors to the CNS
The somatic division of the peripheral nervous system is involved in controlling skeletal muscles
only
The autonomic division of the peripheral nervous system is involved in controlling cardiac
striated muscle, glands, and adipose tissue
The somatic sensory information is collected by sensory receptors in the skeletal muscles, skin,
joints, and bones
