  • Qstn #2-i
    What is the function of nephridia?
    Ans : Nephridia are segmentally arranged excretory organs present in earthworms.
  • Qstn #2-ii
    How many types of nephridia are found in earthworm based on their location?
    Ans : On the basis of their location, three types of nephridia are found in earthworms. They are:

    (a) Septal nephridia: These are present on both sides of the inter-segmental septa behind the 15th segment. They open into the intestines.

    (b) Integumentary nephridia: These lie attached to the body wall from the third segment to the last segment, which opens on the body surface.

    (c) Pharyngeal nephridia: These are present as three paired tufts in fourth, fifth, and sixth segments.

  • Qstn #5
    Distinguish between the following
  • #5-a
    Prostomium and peristomium
    Ans :


    Prostomium
    Peristomium
    Prostomium is a small fleshy lobe, which overhangs the mouth of an earthworm. It helps the organism push into the soil and is sensory in function. The first body segment in the earthworm is called the peristomium. It surrounds the mouth opening.
