I am in 7th grade and we are learning about segmented worms.

i got this information from my textbook.

Worms have a tube like body with a bristle like structure called setae. Setae help keep worms in the soil and help them move. Segmented worms also have bilateral symmetry, a body cavity that holds the organs, and two openings -- mouth and an anus.
