Centipedes

Cats like to play with wiggly things. Once the cat discovers that there are fun things beneath the surface, he will continue to look for them.

They don't eat dirt, like many people believe. All earthworms eat decaying plant and animal matter, and they usually swallow some soil with it. They soil, however, passes right through and exits as castings. The decaying matter is what earthworms actually need for nutrients and energy.

They aerate the soil by breaking and and loosening it, allowing air to mix in, and they enrich it with their droppings. It will surprise some to know that it was Charles Darwin who did a lot of work to show that earthworms are quite beneficial, and not the pests they were thought to be during his day.

Most centipedes are not harmful just ugly so it makes them look harmful but to kill u have to get bug spray and spray it in the vents just keep doing that for about a whole week.

They are important because thay help our gardens and soil.
Earthworms are the 'tillers' of the soil. Their continual burrowing aerates the soil providing oxygen needed by numerous soil fauna

It is the part of an earthworm that when the worm is mature will hold the fertilized egg and then make a cocoon to hold the zygote worm. It is used in reproduction and helps to distinguish the worm's anterior end.

yes they do. but the fertilize it! Many gardeners use worms to fertilize their crops for better maintenance of their fruits and veggies.

P.S. Their "waste" is the fertilizing part. Hope this helps!

earthworms were the third form of life. They have been around for over 2000 years.

This isn't a real advantage to an earthworm. This is because they are not able to reproduce by themselves. They may be hermaphrodites, but it doesn't help them much. ADVANTAGE- when they have "sex" with another worm (touching the clitellum together), it doesn't matter where exactly it touches, as long it touches they are able to reproduce. That is the only advantage. (Which I think is kind of stupid)

There are actually 5 hearts in an earthworm.

Correction:

They technically aren't hearts they are considered aortic arches

The ventral nerve cord runs throughout an earthworm's body. When they start to branch from ganglion the nerve cords are still present throughout the segments.

Invertebrate

various phyla, everyday earthworm probably Phylum Annelida

They probably would if they were hungry yummy :)

Helminthology is the study of worms

Worms need to remain moist in order to survive. The hot sun of the daytime will dry out their skin, and they will die, so they remain under ground and only come out during the moist night air to feed and move about on the surface. Worms breathe by absorbing oxygen through their skin and if there is sufficient oxygen in water, they will breath under water and will not drown, but rain water might not provide the most hospitable environment for their survival.

There are many scientific theories as to "why" worms come to the surface when it rains. Some research suggests that the underground water during rain can lack sufficient oxygen, which encourages the worms to seek the moist open air above ground. Another contributing factor is believed to be because the rain water makes the soil acidic, which can be fatal to worms, and perhaps the flooded tunnels and moist soil become too difficult to navigate. There is also the fact that worms move about and travel more easily on the moist surface which makes it easier to mingle with other worms and mate - which might be the primary reason they come out, or just a convenient benefit of the circumstances that drove them to the surface.

Platyhelminthes as a phylum is divided into 4 classes. The tapeworm class (Cestoda) is endoparasitic. This means they live parasitically inside a host. There is also the ectoparasitic class Monogenea which lives parasitically on the outside of a host.

There are marine specimens and those that live in other moist environments. This is the class Turbellaria.

A Bagworm is the beginning stage of what will eventually become a Bagworm Moth. The Bagworm larvae feast on the leaves of trees and shrubs. This provides them with enough energy to construct a cocoon and eventually emerge as moths.

Yes, I have a cousin that does and his goldfish are fine.

The crop is located closer to the head. The crop has a thinner wall. The gizzard is more muscular and located posterior to the crop.

Pinworm infection is usually accompanied with intense itching at the anal area. Other symptoms include trouble sleeping (as a result of itching), irritability (from lack of sleep and constant itching), and in severe cases weight loss and loss of appetite.

Your anus itches because the female pinworm comes out to lay her eggs in the anal area. A test for pinworms is putting a piece of tape on the tender part of the anus before bed, in the morning before showering or going to the bathroom, remove the tape and inspect for thread like things. A doctor can also give an anal examine or examine a stool sample. However, these tests are not always conclusive.

they pollinate flowers which keeps plants reproducing and not dying off

Have a laugh and get on with your life. You've eaten more worms, rodent hair and droppings, and insect parts than you would ever want to know. Not much - they make you feel a bit sick but otherwise there should be no other harmful side effects.

no. just simply no. ok
