Humans and many other animals have light-sensing cells in their eyes, but light-sensing cells don't have to be in eyes. Earthworms have light-sensing cells scattered throughout their skin, with more of them near their head end and on their backs. When they stick their head out of their burrow, these cells detect light. If they are crawling above ground, the cells on their backs detect light. If there is too much light, they crawl back down underground to avoid drying out or being burned by the sun.
