Earthworms have no special respiratory organs. Gases are exchanged through the moist skin and capillaries, where the oxygen is picked up by the haemoglobin dissolved in the blood plasma and carbon dioxide is released.

Answer:
Skin
Explanation:
- The earthworms' skin feels damp to the touch. They are known as slimy creatures because of this. They have moist skin because it serves as the earthworms' respiratory system.
- The skin of an earthworm is very permeable to the air. Its wet skin and capillaries are often where gases are exchanged. The hemoglobin dissolved in the blood picks up the oxygen gas in these areas, and carbon dioxide is expelled out.
- Earthworms can also actively carry water and minerals via their skin.
- It's interesting to note that frogs can breathe through their skin. Even though they have a set of lungs, frogs frequently breathe through their skin.
