Centipedes

A south American species named Scolopendra Gigantea, which there

is a dark version that is larger than the nominate red "Giant Amazonian/Peruvian"

In an adult worm, there may be more than 100 segments.

Leeches can typically survive for several days to a week out of water as long as they are kept moist and in a humid environment. They will become dormant when dehydrated and can be rehydrated to become active again when placed back in water.

Midden steads refer to ancient trash heaps or refuse piles. These are archaeological sites that contain discarded materials and debris from human activity, providing valuable insights into past civilizations and their way of life.

It depends what you mean by "worm" and "bug".

"Bug" is not a technical term. Sometimes a "bug" means an insect; sometimes it means any invetebrate. Most worms are invetebrates but none are insects.

In every day speech, a worm is any long cylindrical soft-bodied creature with no legs. There are a great many cylindrical soft-bodied animals without legs, belonging to many different groups of animals.

Earthworms, for example, are annelids - a type of inveterbrate animal. Parasitic worms (flatworms, roundworms, tapeworms, etc.) are members of different groups - such as Nematodes and others.

the largest centipede FOUND (key word: found) was at about 9 inches long in the UK. then, someone in Venezuela claims to have seen a centipede about 18 inches long. but just because humans have seen/caught centipedes this long, it doesn't make it the largest!

Nightcrawlers, also known as earthworms, primarily feed on decaying organic matter such as leaves, plant roots, and other vegetation found in the soil. They play an important role in breaking down organic material and improving soil health.

If you pull off insect feeler you should seek help. It does not matter if they grow out or not.

Worms are hermaphrodites, meaning they have both male and female reproductive organs. Depending on the species, a worm can produce anywhere from a few to several hundred baby worms at a time.

Fungi lack chlorophyll, the structure that allows normal plants to undergo photosynthesis. They instead grow on rotting vegetation because they can then feed off the energy the dying plants had.

Segmented worms are classified under the phylum Annelida. They are characterized by their body segmentation, which is divided into repetitive segments called metameres. Annelids include earthworms, leeches, and marine bristle worms.

The sperm duct in an earthworm is responsible for transporting sperm from the seminal vesicles to the genital pores of another earthworm during copulation. This allows for the transfer of sperm from one worm to another for reproduction to occur.

The name of the worm is "arrow worm," commonly known for their distinctive flat, diamond-shaped casings in the ocean. These casings are made of secreted mucous and planktonic particles, which help the arrow worm to camouflage and protect itself from predators.

No, giant African millipedes are not legal to own in California as they are considered an invasive species that could potentially harm local ecosystems if released. It is important to check with state and local wildlife regulations before acquiring any exotic pets.

there life cycle is of abt 3 to 4 months in optimum and suitable conditions. but when condition arund them is not proper for there next generation or growth they undergo a process wherein they form tough cover around them and remain as it is until and unless they got proper conditions to grow and this can be too long even 100 to 200 years

Two worms come together along their ventral sides and become temporarily joined by the secretion of a "slime tube". Sperm is discharged from the seminal vesicles of both Worms's long seminal grooves on the ventral body surfaces, and enter the seminal receptacles of the other worms.

The hydrostatic skeleton in worms provides support and structure as well as enabling movement by using fluid pressure to control body shape and movement. This system allows for both burrowing through soil and flexibility while navigating different environments.

Filarial worms are parasites that can infect humans and other animals, causing diseases such as lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis. These worms reside in the lymphatic system or subcutaneous tissues, leading to symptoms like swelling, skin changes, and potentially serious health complications if left untreated. Transmission occurs primarily through the bite of infected mosquitoes.

An earthworm increases its surface area to volume ratio through its long and slender body shape. This allows for more surface area relative to its volume compared to a more compact shape. Additionally, the earthworm's body is covered in moist, permeable skin, which further increases its surface area for gas exchange and nutrient absorption.

The correct Answer i believe is the Pharynx, As this question happened to be on my Mollusks And Annalids Crossword puzzle my teacher gave us to do, And the only word that Fit was Pharynx. So i believe pharynx is the answer. Hope this helps everyone who has this question.

Contrary to popular belief, if you cut a worm in half, it will not regrow into two separate worms. The part with the head may survive and regenerate its tail, but the other part will likely die. It's not recommended to cut worms in half as it can cause harm to them.

Worms don't have five hearts; they typically have a simple circulatory system with one main "heart" called an aortic arch that pumps blood throughout their body. The misunderstanding may have arisen due to the segmented structure of their bodies, with each segment containing a pair of aortic arches that may be mistaken for multiple hearts.

No, worms do not have 5 hearts. Most worms have a simple circulatory system with vessels that pump blood, but they typically have a single or double main pumping vessel called an aortic arch that acts like a heart.

Centipedes are predators and will eat any invertabrate
