another earthworm question?

The gases move in and out by the process of diffusion.\n\nYou're right, the earthworm uses its skin to exchange gases.  As long as the earthworm's skin is moist, gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide can passively diffuse accross its skin.  This is why an earthworm will die if its skin dries out.  Beleive it or not, we also rely on the process of diffusion to exchange gases.  When we breathe air deep into our lungs, gases diffuse accross the thin, moist surfaces of our lung tissues.  Once a gas like oxygen diffuses into the earthworm, the circulatory system carries it (and other substances too, such as nutrients) to cells within the earthworm's body.  The circulatory system also allows the earthworm to transport waste products from the its cells to the outside environment.  For example, carbon dioxide produced by the earthworm's cells is transported through the circulatory system to the skin, where it can then diffuse out into the earthworm's surroundings.

SInce the earthworm's environment is always wet or humid, it always contains some amount of water for the earthworms, so therefore, it is cool, but if a person was to dig up an earthworm, they would not adapt to the full heat, and try to dig back in again, to their original habitat. Oh yea, and if you do ever find an earthworm in your garden or so, the soil is good for you to plant, and the plants won't die unless you don't give them water. lol

See the link and scroll down to "earthworm" for an interesting discussion of its segments and what they do.  One segment has the brain which controls movement.  Good luck.

A fake Zoomer black worm.-Largemouth\n\nOr just use a live earthcrawler.-Smallmouth

The puzzle is looking for a word for worm.  I think it is probably Platyhelminthes.  This is 15 letters, so maybe the puzzle should say 15 instead of 13.  Maybe there is some other type of worm that they are looking for.  Other possibilities include Chaetognatha (12 letters)

simple animals have this total regeneration ability, even more, if you cut an earth worm to several pieces, each can regenerate to a complete worm.\nthis is very typical of plants.\nmore advanced/complicated animals have a much smaller regenerative ability. something in the genes of the primitive earth worms is lost among the more advanced animals.

Why do you post homework problems here?\n\nAre you so dense you can't figure this out? Or look it up? \n\nAnd you put it in EARTH SCIENCE? It has NO business being in earth science. MAYBE biology or environment and ecology?\n\nI won't dignify this with an answer. Look it up. And anyone who comes after me, please let's have some people look things up and not just post homework here. Or think for a change. What a novel concept.

get one of those little plastic things they put in pizza boxes so they don't get crushed... they make an excellent inchworm picnic table.  a thimble for a toilet.  a corn chex (chek?) for a mattress... you're all set to go. :)

The answer is "Chathuringmes" (or worms!)

The earthworm has a body cavity through which the intestine passes with a front part that is modified to form special structures. The muscular throat sucks food into the food storage organ and it has a gizzard (a muscular organ in which food is ground into smaller pieces) that will grind food. They have an intestine (a region where chemical digestion and absorption occur). The intestine is tube-shaped and runs the entire length of the worm. It has a very tiny brain that is connected to a nerve cord that lies under the intestine. This comprises the nervous system of the earthworm.

"Random Non-sensical Stuff"\n\nYes, this is what I need! I need a category where I can ask if it snows in Honduras will the spotted meal worm be able to approach puberty in time. \n\nOr......these three which will now and forever remain near and dear to my heart:\n\nIf you were a freshly harvested eggplant would you feel guilty that most of your nutrition was erased by the fact you were breaded and deep fried and turned into eggplant parm?\n\nDo erasers silently scream when you traumatically scrape their head across the paper leaving behind tiny bits of their scalps?\n\nIf you were born with more than the normal number of toes would you hide your malady in shame or would you try to exploit it on the sideshow circuit?\n\n\n\nI shall now campaign for "Random Non-sensical Stuff!"

That's a great question!\n\nMy first thought was No, but I googled and found a great piece on worm hearts (see link below).\n\nIt turns out they have something that does a similar job, but is not a heart like we mammals have. Follow the link below for all the details.

What on earth are you posting this here for  ? It is NOT earth science for sure. And it is definitely a homework problem.\n\n------------\n\nI guess it isnt. I found it as part of some science trivia quiz.
