Question

How can we compare a earthworm to a spring

Answer 1

Answer:

As the soils begin to warm up this spring, and plants come back to life, earthworms are also becoming active after a long winter hiding from the cold. With the recent warm, wet weather, you may even have come across earthworms on pavements after a heavy rain.

Usually earthworms are lothe to come up to the surface during the daytime, as they are sensitive to ultraviolet light and rapidly loose moisture in the sun. They are also more visible to predators when they venture above ground, so this can often leave us pondering what on earth they are doing on pavements after a downpour.
