a. cardiac muscleb. most glandsc. smooth muscled. skeletal muscle

d. Skeletal muscle

SOMATIC NERVOUS SYSTEM:

Somatic nervous is one of the components of efferent/motor nervous system.

It controls voluntary activities. It involves the control of skeletal muscles.

It is composed of the motor neuron and the innervating muscle.

It is composed of 2 neurons; preganglionic and postganglionic neurons.
