Which move faster an earthworm or snail?
Answers
Answer:
Earthworms moves faster than the snails.
Explanation:
Earthworm uses its body muscles to extend their movement in forward directions. They have tiny structures like hairs called setae which help them to move inside the soils downwards.
The setae also work as an anchor to pull the earthworm rear parts of the body forward. Whereas, the movement of snail is mostly done by their thick muscular foot which is slimy and covered with epithetical cilia.
A muscle movement of the snail is visible when you observe them on a glass surface.
Answer:
Earthworm
Explanation:
An earthworm moves comparatively faster than a snail because the snail has to drag a heavy shell on its body and instead of muscles, it uses a foot that extends from its mouth to move in a wavy pattern. Meanwhile, earthworms have muscles that extend and contract and also have bristles that fixed a portion to the ground for locomotion.
