Answer:An earthworm breathes oxygen by absorbing it through its moist skin. It likes damp soil, but if the rain is very heavy, the oxygen in the water-logged soil may run out. Then the worm has to come up into the air to breathe. On top of the wet ground, the worm can breathe and wriggle along.

Answer:
Earthworms come on land after the rain:- so that they can move over land.The temporarily wet conditions give worms a chance to move safely to new places.**Since worms breathe through their skin, the skin must stay wet in order for the Oxygen to pass through it.** So it gives them an opportunity to move greater distances across the soil than they could do through soil. Hope it will be helpful.
