the somatic nervous system carries information to the
brain.
visceral effectors.
skeletal muscles.
autonomic effectors.
The somatic nervous system is part of the peripheral nervous system and is responsible for voluntary movements. It transmits information from the central nervous system (brain and spinal - cord) to skeletal muscles, enabling conscious control of movement. It does not primarily carry information to the brain (sensory neurons do that in part, but not the main function of somatic nervous system for motor control), nor to visceral or autonomic effectors which are controlled by the autonomic nervous system.
