Answer:

They do not have teeth. A liplike extension over the mouth helps direct food into the mouth, where the muscular pharynx (throat) grabs it, coats it with saliva and pushes it down the esophagus into the crop, where it is stored before moving on to the gizzard.

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.
