False<br /><br />The somatic nervous system does not consist of cranial nerves and spinal nerves. The somatic nervous system is a part of the peripheral nervous system that controls voluntary movements of the body's skeletal muscles. It is responsible for transmitting sensory information from the skin, muscles, and joints to the central nervous system, and for carrying motor commands from the central nervous system to the skeletal muscles. The cranial nerves and spinal nerves are part of the nervous system, but they are not specifically part of the somatic nervous system.
