General Terms for an Animal’s Structure:
Dorsal – top side
Ventral – bottom side
Anterior – front of the earthworm; where the mouth is located.
Posterior – back end; where the anus is located. Anterio

Earthworm External Features:
Segments – sections of the body
Clitellum – smooth band around the earthworm
that forms a cocoon for fertilized eggs during
reproduction.
Setae – bristles found along the ventral side of the earthworm that help it move.
Mouth – takes in food; closer to clitellum; anterior end of worm.
Anus – releases wastes; posterior end of worm.

Earthworm Body Systems
Circulatory System – How the blood circulates through the body.
Aortic Arches (hearts) – pumps blood.
Blood Vessels – both dorsal and ventral sides of worm.

Earthworm Body Systems
Nervous System – How the worm senses and feels things.
Brain – very difficult to see; near segment 2.
Nerve Cord – only on ventral side of worm.

Earthworm Body Systems
Reproductive System – Making more earthworms.
Clitellum – holds fertilized eggs.
Seminal Vessicles – sperm is made here.
Seminal receptacles – sperm is stored here.
Earthworms are hermaphrodites meaning they
have both male and female structures.
Clitellum
Seminal Vesicles and receptacles

Earthworm Body Systems
Digestive System – Taking in food and breaking it down.
Mouth – takes in food; anterior end. Pharynx – muscular tube leading to the esophagus. Esophagus – tube going from the pharynx to the crop. Crop – stores food. Gizzard – grinds food. Intestine – main organ
in digestion. Anus – releases wastes.

Earthworm Body Systems
Excretory System – Gets rid of wastes.
Nephridia – little coiled tubes that get ride of wastes throughout the worm.
Anus – releases wastes.
