Answer:

Annelids

The brain of most annelids (phylum Annelida; segmented worms, including the leeches and terrestrial earthworms) is relatively simple in structure. The earthworm brain is a bilobed mass lying above the pharynx in the third body segment. Sensory nerves leave the brain and run forward into the prostomium (extreme anterior end) and first segment. The brain of the active, predatory polychaetes (a class of marine worms) is more complicated. In some the brain can be divided into a forebrain, a midbrain, and a hindbrain; a single pair of circumesophageal or circumpharyngeal connectives leave the brain, surround the anterior gut, and connect with the ventral nerve cord.

The bibbed mass of nervous tissue called suprapharyngeal ganglia lies on the dorsal wall of the pharynx in the 3 segment. It is referred as the brain. In the 4th segment, the sub-pharyngeal ganglia is found. The brain and the sub-pharyngeal are connected by a pair of circum-pharyngeal connectives. The double ventral nerve cord runs backward from the sub-pharyngeal ganglion. The brain and other nerves in the ring integrates sensory inputs and command muscular responses of the bodyRead.

hope you have a great day
