The nephridia of earthworm open into the coelom by_________?
Correct answer: A. Nephrostome
- A. Nephrostome
- B. Nephridiopore
- C. Flame cell
- D. Anus
Explanation
The nephrostome is the funnel-shaped opening through which an earthworm's nephridium receives fluid from the coelom. A nephridiopore opens to the outside, while the anus belongs to the digestive tract; students commonly choose nephridiopore by confusing entry with exit.
