Can Earthworms Sing 20, Can Earthworms Sing

Li Shizhen, Compendium of Materia Medica, Description of Earthworms The season begins to emerge in summer, the midwinter is dormant, the rain comes out first, and the night is sunny and ,.. at nightThere is a lyric in the Taiwanese ballad Autumn Wind and Night Rain The sound of wind and rain disturbs the silence of the autumn night, and I often hear earthworms crying sad ,..Therefore, many people believe that earthworms can call.

However, from an anatomical point of view, earthworms do not have vocal organs, and the friction of their bristles against the soil does not make sounds. Therefore, the earthworm will bark, which should be the misleading result of an inaccurate observation.

Yes! All living beings in nature sing in their own way, but we are deaf and blind and have no time to hear or see.

Definitely. Whether people can hear or not is another matter.

I remember that in the previous physics class, there were many kinds of sound waves, and people could only hear within a certain range.

Each creature will have its own method of communication.

Maybe their 'singing' is some kind of contact or writhing.

Even brain waves are possible, hehe.

And as far as I can remember, earthworms reproduce unisexually, without gender. Hehe.

Hope you understand.

If an earthworm can sing, the deaf can hear it.

Very good! Actually, it will. I've heard it.

Maybe I put it, but if I guess we won't understand it.

Have you ever heard of earthworm fart?

Yes, but we can't hear it.

Yes, there are many terrestrial species that can make sounds.

Earthworm vocalization mechanism: rubbing the body wall against the soil. For example, the Gippsland earthworm in southeastern Australia is 2m long and lives in soil 1 metre below the ground.

Sometimes the earthworms have to burrow out of the ground because of heavy rains, and if people step on top of their burrows, they feel the vibrations and crunch in warning.

Introduction to earthworms. Earthworms are rich in nutrition, rapid reproduction, miscellaneous diets, and high yield in artificial breeding. Good economic benefits. Earthworms can be used as a valuable medicine** for many diseases, and can also be used as high-protein food and feed.

Earthworms dig holes to loosen the soil, decompose organic matter, create good conditions for the growth and reproduction of soil microorganisms, and play a special role in soil improvement, eliminating public pollution, protecting the ecological environment, in material cycle, biodiversity, etc.

I often hear many elders say that they have heard earthworms calling, but some books say that it is not earthworms calling, but insects (?) that live in the earthworm passages. Calling; Do earthworms really call? In Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica, earthworms were mentioned

The summer season begins to emerge, the midwinter cockroaches end, the rain comes out first, and the sunny day is the night ,..In the Taiwanese song "Autumn Wind and Night Rain," it is sung that the sound of wind and rain disturbs the quiet of the autumn night, and it is common to hear earthworms crying and sad ,..And the earthworm will bark?!

But from an anatomical point of view, the earthworm does not have an organ similar to making sounds, and it should not make sounds. In the earthworm breeding tank in our laboratory, we have heard a low, water-like chirping sound, which may be due to the high amount of soil moisture, and the water chirping sound emitted by the earthworms as they crawl through the passage in the soil; It is also reported that there is a super-large earthworm in Australia, the Australian giant earthworm (up to 3 meters long), which can hear the sound of water flowing in its body, but this is different from the ancient Taiwanese song "The Wormworm Song" sung in the earthworm song, the tail of the earthworm boy was born long, its waist is soft, and it has an open earth hole on the edge of the field, where it makes a bed, and when it sees the moonlight of the third watch, it crawls out of the orifice, and screams there、、、 which describes a higher sound. According to many enthusiastic people, what they heard was also a high-pitched sound, and the low-frequency water sound did not seem to be the same.

So if an earthworm does call, how does its sound come about? We speculated a few reasons:1

Does the internal diaphragm of the earthworm vibrate? 2.The sound of food creeping and rubbing in the digestive tract?

3.Crawling in the soil, the sound of just hair rubbing against the soil? 4.

It could even be the sound of an earthworm exerting gas from the anal door (it's a fart!). ）

Of course not, your dad lied to you.
