* Leeches are segmented worms with suction cups at each end. Their bodies are flattened, much wider than they are thick. They are usually dark colored, often brown or sometimes black or dark green. Some species have no markings, others have spots and stripes. The smallest leeches grow no more than 5 mm, but some big species may get to be more than 25 cm long. Many leech species have one or more pairs of eyes visible on the top of their front end. Leech species that suck blood have sharp teeth. Predatory species may have teeth, or may have only crushing jaws

How do earthworms help farmers?
Earthworms fertilize the soil because they are detritivites, meaning that they eat dead matter in the soil as they move and turn it into nutrients. Earthworms eat soil and excrete soil quite quickly. What the earthworm excretes fertilizes the soil and helps the farmer for planting and growing crops. It helps because it drags down nutrients from rotting leaves, food etc. and fertilizes the soil during the process. They also create air spaces in the soil (aerate it) which helps the roots take up oxygen for photosynthesis.
from the common reference of "mother nature" and from the greek goddess "Gia" whom was to represent earth, i'd have to say earth is a girl.
Yes it does. It sounds ridiculous but 'm telling the truth. It's actually big enough for them to bite a leaf and drag it around.
Where do you cut an earthworm so that it can regrow its tail without dying?
I belive i can be cut anywhere.
You can cheat death by accepting it gracefully as a close of innings,as human beings have so far not achieved immortality. As the Hindus believe in re birth, death is a simple transfer of soul (Atma) from a dead body to a new one.Since it's a philosophical question, the appropriate answer would be to accept it as an inevitable natural event which will come down to every body be it earlier or later.If you realize that you have accomplished all your desires/expectations within your life span, why don't you receive it with smile ?
What is the function of the prostomium?
Prostomium (sometimes also called acron) is the first body segment in annelids worms. It is in front of (but does not include) the mouth, being usually a small shelf- or lip-like extension over the dorsal side of the mouth. It sometimes bears antennae and eyes. By feeding, it often functions like a kind of overlip. The shape and composition of prostomium are important for annelid systematics.
