What is the appendage of an earthworm?
What are the reproductive parts of an earthworm?
All worms have both male reproductive organs and female reproductive organs. This means that they are hermaphrodites. The female organs of a worm include the egg sacs and ovaries. The male organs are two pairs of testes, three pairs of seminal vesicles and sperm funnels. Despite the fact that worms have both male and female organs; it must mate with another worm in order to reproduce its own kind.
What effect do small burrowing animals and earthworms have on rocks and soil in the ground?
The worms help the soil, thus helping plants. They eat food that you throw out, and their body waste helps the soil. They break down minerals into forms that are more easily used by plants. Small burrowing animals sometimes eat things that might damage plant roots, which helps plants too. This affects us because it makes our food from the plants healthier.
How and why do earthworms shed their skin?
Earthworms do not shed their skin. Earthworms are not snakes and their skin actually grows as they grow larger. Earthworms do shed bits of waste material.

Usually the head of the worm will survive and grow back a tail, while the tail part dies when all energy are used up. In some cases it may also grow back into another worm.
Are earthworms attracted to perfume or vinegar?
Did you get into environmental studies also?
I did and I'm not sure so im going to say perfume :0
the same way any other organism does; it is consumed and therefore recycled by other decomposers when it dies. Earthworms are considered decomposers because they eat rotting or dead organisms and they essentially excrete the chemical nutrients that enrich soil so that plants can grow.
What percent of a earthworm is water?
I think it is about 70 - 80 percent but this answer may not be accurate.
What kingdom do earthworms belong to?

Earthworms belong to the Annelida phylum.
Similarities and differences of earthworm and human circulatory system?
Naturally human bodies are much more complex than those of worms. For instance, humans have skeletal system, while worms are invertebrates. They also have a very weak nervous system which doesn't allow them to feel any pain. Humans generally have good senses we can taste, touch, hear, smell, and see well (we can also feel pain). Worms only have eye spots which give them awareness on the level of light in their environment however don't actually give them vision. Worms have two main blood vessels: a dorsal and a ventral vessel. These vessels circulate blood from the head to the tail of their bodies. The blood is moved from waves of contraction in the vessel. Both humans and worms are alike in that they both have what is referred to as a 'closed circulatory system'. However in our system we have only one heart and the two fluids we transport are blood and lymph; meanwhile worms have 5 hearts which circulate blood.
In a worms excretory system basically food goes in the mouth and comes out the opposite end. of an earthworm is very simple. In short, food goes in one end and comes out the other. Niphridia helps to absorb some water during the process. They are found in pairs in every segment except the first 3 and the last one. Niphridia are to worms what kidney's are to humans.
Do earthworms make plants grow faster?
[1] Earthworms can make plants grow better, and possibly faster, by the improvements that they make to soil. They tunnel through soil, thereby opening up passageways for air, nutrients, and water. [2] They open up pore spaces for the passing of water, thereby improving waterholding and drainage in soil. [3] They eat and eliminate, thereby building up organic matter in soil. [4] They die and decay, thereby adding their body and body parts to the organic content of soil.
Ants will eat any living (or dead) thing they can bring into their colony even if they have to rip it apart alive. I've seen it.
How many babies does an earthworm have?
yes earthworms have babies. Earthworms carry both male and female reproductive parts --they are hermaphroditic. Two worms line up side to side with their heads at opposite ends. Huge amounts of mucus secrete from the worms, passing the male sperm from one to the other. When the worm is alone it then secretes another mucus ring which slides over the worms body in which the eggs cling onto which then fertilizes them. Then the eggs slip off the worm's body and is left in a cocoon with is left in the soil.
