State one difference in the transport of gases in the body of an insect and in the body of an earthworm

Biology

ScanSolve AI Answer

In insects, gases are transported directly to the cells through a system of tubes called tracheae and tracheoles, without involving the circulatory system. In contrast, in an earthworm, gases diffuse through the moist skin into the blood, which then transports them throughout the body via its circulatory system.
