The bristles along the body of an earthworm are called the Setae, they are used as anchors as the earthworm moves along. The earthworms will anchor the rear of the body as it extends the front then anchor the front of the body as it contracts the rear. The setae are extended and contracted in sequence to match the movement of the body.

An earthworm's ability to dig through soil is aided by its strong, muscular body and the hydraulic pressure created by its body fluids. The earthworm's setae, tiny bristle-like structures on its body, also help it grip onto soil particles as it moves. These structures are located along the earthworm's body segments.
