# Flatworms can glide over surfaces, or the underside of a surface film of water, using small body hairs for movement. # The stomach is like a sack. The food goes into the sack through the mouth. Once the food is taken into the body, the rest is thrown back out of the mouth. (They have no anus). # They reproduce sexually (having both male and female organs) and asexually by splitting. Each piece that is split off becomes a separate worm. # They also reproduce by regeneration. They do this by producing a new worm from a broken piece.
