Annelid worm anatomy
Annelid worm anatomy. Computer artwork showing the internal anatomy of 3 segments (metameres) from an annelid (segmented) worms body. The basic annelid body consists of multiple segments, each with the same sets of organs, and each separated by a dividing wall (septum, blue disc). Nephrostomes funnel water from the coelom (fluid-filled cavity) into the nephridia, the equivalent of kidneys, where it is filtered to remove metabolic waste. For the labelled diagram see image: C008/8690

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate internal anatomy of an annelid worm, depicted through detailed computer artwork. The image highlights three segments (metameres) of the segmented worm's body, each containing a set of organs and separated by a dividing wall known as a septum (depicted as blue discs). One notable feature displayed in this illustration is the nephrostomes, which function as water funnels from the coelom (fluid-filled cavity) into the nephridia - equivalent to kidneys in humans. Within these nephridia, metabolic waste is filtered out from the water. The labelled diagram accompanying this image provides further insight into various aspects such as nerves, circulatory system, digestive system, and more. It allows viewers to explore and understand different components within this fascinating creature's physiology. Annelids possess a unique body structure consisting of multiple segments that house identical sets of organs. This anatomical arrangement plays a crucial role in their survival and adaptation to diverse environments. With its combination of artistry and scientific accuracy, this print serves as an excellent resource for individuals interested in biology, zoology or anyone captivated by nature's wonders.
