Marine Biology Chapter 8 - Marine Worms Food enters the mouth and is digested in the intestine; the nutrients diffuse throughout the body (there are no circulatory or respiratory systems). The undigested materials are discharged from the mouth (there is no anus). Ribbon worms have more highly developed circulatory and digestive systems. Prey, such as small ﬁsh and polychaete worms, are speared by a sharp, sticky extension called a proboscis, which the ribbon worm extends from a recessed area in its head region.

Composting with worms Composting with worms It's simple. The worms are kept in a bin with shredded paper or other biodegradable bedding. You feed them food waste. They digest the waste and bedding then excrete nutrient-rich castings.After a few months, the castings combined with the well-decomposed bedding, become vermicompost -- one of the richest soil improvements around.he best worms for vermicomposting are redworms. The redworm (Eisenia foetida or Lumbricus rubellus) also known as: red wiggler, manure worm, red hybrid, striped worm, fish worm. Whatever it's called, the redworm is the worm capable of reproducing quickly in captivity, while chomping copious quantities of food waste.

Ribbon Worm Ribbon worms have muscular eversible (able to be turned inside out) proboscis (tubular feeding and sucking organ), housed in a fluid-filled enclosure above the belly or gut. This area is used to trap prey and it is used for burrowing. Land-dwelling ribbon worms may use it for fast movement. At a minimum of 8 inches long, the ribbon worms body is long and lean with finlike appendages. Some giant ribbon worm species or ‘Lineus longissimus’ may reach up to 100 feet long. Ribbon worms reproduce annually.

They eat living organisms such as nematodes, protozoans, rotifers, bacteria, fungi in soil. Worms will also feed on the decomposing remains of other animals.. Experts believe most native species were wiped out wherever glaciers covered the land. Most earthworms we see today were imported mainly from Europe by early settlers. The worms or worm cocoons traveled in the rootstocks of plants brought by the settlers from their homelands.
