<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2>

The simple answer for that will be that they are not complex organisms. Earthworms are simple organism with the small body,

So as there body is not that big thus they don't need any specialized organ system for the process of respiration. Every organism has the complex systems according to fulfill their needs, and most certainly the skin is very convenient medium for the respiration by the diffusion process.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<h3>BLOOD CIRCULATORY SYSTEM:</h3>

They have a specialized system where it was needed, THE BLOOD CIRCULATION SYSTEM, There body is small but long and need blood to transfer the oxygen to each part of the body. There blood have the haemoglobin(it carries the oxygen), thus it is red just like us.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<h3>SKIN:</h3>

Skin as a respiratory medium, needs to be thin, wet and cover large surface area than volume. The Skin fulfills all these Prerequisites, thus it is a perfect organ for the respiration. Even our respiratory medium which is alveoli is wet, thin and cover REALLY large surface area more than our body. If the skin dries, there will be no diffusion and worm will die due to dessication.

The. of earth's rotation axis stays the same as it orbits the sun​
yuradex [85]

Answer:

The tilt of earth's rotation axis stays the same as it orbits the sun​.

Explanation:

The axis of the Earth is an imaginary line around which the Earth is known to orbit. The axis of the earth is known to tilt at an angle of 66 and a half degrees. The tilt of the axis of the Earth remains the same and it does nor change as the earth orbits around the sun. The orbiting of the Earth around its axis causes day and night to occur on the planet Earth. The rotation of the Earth around its axis is slowing with time.
