Does a centipede have a heart?
Spiders DO NOT have any lungs the breathe through small holes in its abdomen called trachea holes. these holes are on the underside of the abdomen and lead to their internal organs.
Its been scientifically proven. So Isaac was right, whoever answered that question last.
Magnets are made from materials that are able to retain an electrical polarization. These materials can include iron, nickel, and cobalt. When these materials are exposed to a strong magnetic field, they become magnetized and can attract or repel other objects with magnetic properties.
Millipedes are detritivores, feeding primarily on decomposing plant material such as fallen leaves, wood, and other organic debris. They play a vital role in the ecosystem by helping to break down and recycle organic matter. Some species may also feed on fungi or algae.
What is the name for the worm you dig up on the beach that looks almost like bacon?
Approx two and a half minutes into the "The Sanctuary - Sea Meeper 2" video clip linked to below there's a guy sucking Ragworms out of the sand. I think these may be the one's you're after. ---- You need further details to identify it. I've never dug up a worm on a beach that looked like bacon. Help with more info please. Perhaps you've dug up a razorfish? These are prevalent in the Bay of Fundy, eastern Canada (Nova Scotia and New Brunswick). They are extremely hard to catch, and most often are seen in long, razor sharp clam shells... Maybe it would help if you said what beach, or the general area...
How do you describe the clitellum?
The clitellum is a thickened band or saddle-like structure found near the front end of the body in segmented worms like earthworms. It is involved in reproduction, producing a secretion that helps form the cocoon for egg deposition.
Would worms like soil or sand the most?
fertile and wet
Worms are adapted to live in any soil that holds moisture and has enough organic matter to sustain them. Earthworms do better in loams, clay loams, and silty soils than they do in sandy soil, mainly because sandy soil drains too quickly and doesn't have enough organic matter to feed them. Red compost worms, Eisenia fetida, live under pools of organic matter, like depressions where leaves settle in the fall. They live in the mulch layer between the soil and the surface, not in the soil itself.
How much legs does a leafhopper have?
A leafhopper typically has six legs, like most insects. These legs are adapted for jumping and are used for movement and feeding.
What impact would a statocyst that does not function have on an earthworm?
If a statocyst in an earthworm does not function, the earthworm may have difficulty sensing its orientation and movement in relation to gravity. This could lead to problems with burrowing and navigating through soil, which are important activities for earthworms. The earthworm may also struggle to avoid predators and find food efficiently without proper functioning of the statocyst.
How many segments does a millipede have?
That depends on the millipede. Each segment has a pair of legs. As they get older, they have more segments. The number of legs usually ranges from 80 to 400, although there are a few that have as many as 750
This worm has a larval form called a bladder worm?
A bladder worm is a larval form of a tapeworm that can develop in the muscles of animals, including humans. When an animal ingests contaminated food or water, the larvae can hatch and migrate to different tissues, forming fluid-filled cysts known as bladder worms. In humans, bladder worms can cause a condition called cysticercosis, which may lead to symptoms ranging from mild to severe depending on the location of the cysts.

Do slow-worms hibernate in the summer?
I live by the South Downs, and frequently see slowworms in my garden from Spring when they're tiny through summer when they've grown to a good size. I've trained my cat to ignore them, and do my best to encourage them. They're always a pleasure to see.
Silk worms are the larvae of a certain type of beetle. When they transfer into metamorphosis, they form a cocoon around themselves, much like a butterfly. They are boiled, and the cocoon is unraveled to make silk.
Centipedes use the poison claws to bite potential predators including other centipedes. The caudal legs in some Scolopendromorpha may pinch. Other defense methods include camouflage, "aposematic" [warning] coloration and luminescence, "autotomizing" or dropping of legs that are grasped by predators, and outrunning them. Some species also produce defensive secretions with a variety of noxious chemicals and larger species appear to have poison glands in their legs, as merely walking on skin can result in inflamed puncture wounds. Some lithobiomorphs emit liquid strands from glands in the caudal end that entangle potential predators.
What does a worm need to live?
Only a little bit. If you give it to much it could drown. Just enough to make the soil damp.
How many parts does a worm have?
The worm has atleast 93 body parts as they are very wel built creatures
the moth had 345
Worms typically prefer dark, moist environments because they are photosensitive and can dry out in direct sunlight. They will burrow deeper into the soil during the day to avoid light and surface conditions.
Millipedes do NOT have a back-bone. They have a soft body, supported by an external 'skeleton' of hard 'plates' and segments.
Centipedes are not considered intelligent in the same way that mammals are. They rely on their instincts and reflexes to navigate their environment and capture prey. However, they are highly adapted to their ecological niche and exhibit behaviors that help them survive in their habitats.
Why does an earthworm have a soft slimy skin?
An earthworm's soft, slimy skin is due to the mucus it secretes to help with movement and to prevent drying out. The sliminess also aids in breathing through the skin by allowing oxygen exchange with the environment.
No, worms cannot go down slides as they do not have limbs or muscles to control their movement on a slide. Worms typically move by contracting and expanding their bodies to wriggle through soil and other substrates.
yes centipedes have legs all the way down their body
The name "Centipede" in latin terms, means 100 feet. But despite this name, not all centipedes have 100 legs. The number of legs varies fron 20 to 300.
Millipedes do not bite humans. They have no venom or stingers, and their primary defense mechanism is to curl into a spiral or emit a foul-smelling substance. While handling them may cause skin irritation, their bite is not harmful to humans.
