Answer:

The peripheral neuron system carrys out commands from the brain to various parts of the body and delivering information from various parts of the body back to the brain. You can consciously detect and act on objects through your somatic nervous system. Without your conciousness, the autonomic nervous system controls the internal functions that keep you alive.

Hope this helps <3

Answer:

The somatic and autonomic nervous systems are subcategories of the peripheral nervous system. Although the somatic and autonomic nervous systems have different jobs they both somewhat rely on stimuli from inside or outside the body to function. They both react to stimuli and send messages using electric pulses through the body to do their job.
