The function of somatic nervous system is to connect the brain and the spinal cord to the rest of the body.  

Option A

Explanation:  

The "Somatic nervous system" is division of "peripheral nervous system". Somatic nervous system has two categories of neurons which differ in their mode of impulse transmission these are afferent neurons that carries the signal from sensory receptors of the body to the central nervous system (CNS) and efferent neurons that carries the nerve impulses from the CNS to the other parts of body which have voluntary muscles hence forming a reflex arc. Afferent neurons (sensory neurons) and efferent neurons (motor neurons) are only involved in controlling the voluntary muscles.
