When you paint with a paintbrush, your brain sends messages to your finger muscles so that your fingers move in specific ways. This example illustrates the functions of the system.

Somatic nervous system.

Explanation:

The somatic nervous system is the part of the nervous system in vertebrates that is related to the work of the skeletal muscles and the sense organs. The nerves of the somatic nervous system innervate the skin, striated muscles, eyes, nose, ears and other organs, allowing them to see, hear, feel, taste and smell through the sense organs. The somatic nervous system is involved in directing information from the corresponding receptor cells to the central nervous system and viceversa.
