Q

how are earthworms beneficial in soil?

A

they aerate the soil and their casting improve the soils texture

Q

what segmented worm is used in medicine?

A

leeches

64
Q

how are insects important in food production? and their major ecological role?

A

they carry/spread seeds, they are pollinators

65
Q

What group of aquatic arthropods include many food items?

A

crustaceans
