In earthworms, the structure that functions similarly to the human heart is the dorsal blood vessel. This vessel acts as a pump, circulating blood throughout the worm's body. Unlike the human heart, which is a muscular organ, the dorsal blood vessel contracts rhythmically to propel the blood, helping to transport nutrients and oxygen to various tissues.

How are the structure and function of an organisms parts related?
The structure and function relate because what the structure is made of infuences what the organ's function is. An example is that the heart is made of strong muscle cells. Therefore, it is fit to do the job of pumping blood around the body.
How does the structure of cardiac myocytes and intercalated discs follow the function of cardiac muscle tissue and the heart?
The structure of the heart is very complex. Cardiac myocytes and intercalated discs follow the function of cardiac muscle tissue and the heart make up part of this very complex system
