What allows the annelids to burrow in soil?
The annelids (also called "ringed worms"), formally called Annelida (from French annelés "ringed ones", ultimately from Latin anellus "little ring"[2]), are a large phylum of segmented worms, with over 17,000 modern species including ragworms, earthworms and leeches. They are found in marine environments from tidal zones to hydrothermal vents, in freshwater, and in moist terrestrial environments.
