How do earthworms get oxygen to their cells?

Biology
1 answer:
Ksju [112]3 years ago
7 0

They breathe through their skin. Air dissolves on the mucus of their skin, so they MUST stay moist to breathe.

If worms dry out, they suffocate. As fresh air is taken in through the skin, oxygen is drawn into the worm's circulatory system, and the worm's hearts pump the oxygenated blood to the head area.

Which statement best describes the age of the seafloor?
Fittoniya [83]
The correct option is B. The newest crust on earth is located at the actual site of the floor spreading and as new crusts are formed they replace it. Thus, the older the crust the farther it is from the mid ocean ridge. 
Sea floor spreading is a geological process in which tectonic plates splits apart from one another. It occurs at divergent plate boundaries.
