Answer:

Heyy mate...

Food such as soil enters the earthworm's mouth where it is swallowed by the pharynx. ... The gizzard uses stones that the earthworm eats to grind the food completely. The food moves into the intestines as gland cells in the intestine release fluids to aid in the digestive process.

hope it helps.. .

Answer:

Earthworms are an example of an animal with an alimentary canal. Once the food is ingested through the mouth, it passes through the esophagus and is stored in an organ called the crop; then it passes into the gizzard where it is churned and digested.
