Segmented worms, or annelids, possess a distinct body structure characterized by a series of repeating segments, which allows for greater flexibility and movement. They have a coelom, or body cavity, that is divided by septa, and many also have bristle-like structures called chaetae that aid in locomotion. Annelids exhibit a closed circulatory system and can be found in various environments, from marine to freshwater and terrestrial habitats. Additionally, they exhibit advanced nervous systems with a centralized ganglia and ventral nerve cord.
