To remove waste products.
yes, they have a complete digestive system with organs and a circulatory system with organs.
nephridia
The annelids are segmented worms. Although some annelids have appendages and primitive sight organs (photo-reactive pigment spots), earthworms do not. Earthworms do, however, have the typical annelid neural ganglia, and the annelid circulatory system, including the aortic arches that function as the worm's heart. And, of course, earthworms are segmented.
Nope - Earthworms are hermaphrodites - in that they have both male and female reproductive organs. During mating they exchange sperm - and lay eggs a few days later which hatch into tiny earthworms.

The organs of the simple excretory system in earthworms are called nephridia. Each segment of the earthworm contains a pair of nephridia, which function to filter and excrete waste products from the coelomic fluid. The nephridia help maintain osmoregulation and eliminate nitrogenous waste, primarily in the form of ammonia. This efficient system allows earthworms to thrive in their moist soil habitats.
