How do you realize if a neural pathway is somatic or autonomic? Somatic neural pathway send messages to the cardiac and smooth muscles. Somatic pathways secrete acetylcholine, but autonomic pathways do not. The effectors at the end of the pathway are different. Autonomic pathways send messages to the skeletal muscles.
