The somatic nervous system controls voluntary muscle movements.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 18: Neural Control and Coordination Peripheral and Autonomic Nervous System - Cranial and Spinal Nerves
The cerebrum is responsible for sensory processing, voluntary movements, and higher cognitive functions.
Ref: NCERT Class 11 Biology Chapter 18: Neural Control and Coordination Central Nervous System - Spinal Cord Reflex Action and Reflex Arc
The cerebrum contains motor areas that control voluntary movements.

Pick B: Muscle tone and reflex sensitivity. Thinking about Neuron; Structure and Function in a practical way — what the structure does, or what the process achieves — leads you here. Clinically and academically, the same logic shows up again and again: the functional job described in the stem is exactly what Muscle tone and reflex sensitivity does in Neuron; Structure and Function. Hence Muscle tone and reflex sensitivity is correct. Treat this as a building block for the rest of Neuron; Structure and Function; neighbouring topics often reuse the same principle. Keep a one-line summary card for this idea and revisit it before the paper; short, repeated review beats long cramming sessions.
Ref: Animal physiology is Unit 7 of the CSIR NET Life Science Syllabus, covering core body systems. It accounts for roughly 10% of the total marks in Sections B and C.
