We have a complicated relationship with worms. On the one hand, they’re gross. They end up in body parts and cause disease. On the other hand, they’re everywhere. You cannot escape worms, especially in the microcosmos.

I used to have a crippling phobia of worms, and watching any of these videos or even hearing about them would have sent me into panic. It prevented me from going to college for biology after highschool. Now its been 3 years since i started exposure therapy and I work in landscaping, inevitability covering myself in all the microbes that once ruled my life. Watching this video showed me Im ready to finally go to school for biology

@FronkZappa 6 ай бұрын

I should give that a try, I've moved past most of my childhood fears but my phobia of worms hasn't diminished despite trying to understand them or associate them with close invertebrate relatives like molluscs that I appreciate. Still watch my steps and get fight or flight when I'm walking after rain and earthworms are everywhere, and pictures of things like proboscis worms or leeches make me recoil. I think it's prob similar to many people's reactions to snakes, but I love snakes and find the movement/lack of a defined head or eyes/texture of worms much worse ⚡

We started a composting worm bin last year. They eat all our veggies scraps and have done an incredible job of consuming all our boxes of wine boxes, Amazon boxes etc, and even our cannabis harvest waste. Collected about 20 gallons of vermicompost so far. Incredible, industrious little colony. Of course they are happy as every compost worm could only dream of consuming wine boxes and weed trim. 😂

As a biologist annelids almost certainly evolved their coeloms completely independently from vertebrates, so it was not shared by the common ancestor. Annelids sit in Spiralia, a completely different animal group from vertebrates in dueterostomata. In fact, contrary to what many high school text books say today, there are four major groups of bilateral animals, spiralia (flatworms, annelids, mollusks and friends), Ecdysozoa (arthropods, nematodes, velvet worms, and a few others), and Dueterostomata (echinoderms, hemichordates, and chordates including vertebrates), then there are the Acoels flatworm like animals which might be dueterostomes, but most likely sit as an outgroup to the other three groups. While the base of the bilaterian tree is very contentious, there is a lot of building evidence that the last common ancestor of bilateria was acoelomate and flatworm like. So earthworm coeloms and human coeloms are most likely convergent evolution.

28:20 there are products available that claim to be beneficial nematodes for the garden. They're supposed to feed on the larva of ticks, fleas, and other pests. I sure would like someone with a microscope to verify the claims of these products, like whether or not they even contain live nematodes.

My favorite worm is an aquatic worm I used to find in my aquariums for a while: Aulophorus furcatus, belonging to the oligochaeta. It gets over 1 cm long. They were easy to watch, wedged into the ground directly at the glass, with the head in the ground, foraging for food, and their rear end (I learned that later...) sticking out. The funny detail is that besaid back end looks like a chubby HAND, with 5 fat fingers, plus 2 thin ones. They slowly moved all the time, but not in the way you would expect a hydra to move when/after catching something. Watching one under a microscope, I could see they had to have cilia allover the 5 tentacles, since the water there constantly moved, visible by debris being whirled around. When I identified it, I found out the broad tentacles are actually GILLS, while the 2 thin ones are for sensoric purposes. Oh and they also can swim, like a corkscrew, but don't do that often. Tentacle butt worms, I miss you, you were funny. 💔

I had a wild little coincidence yesterday. Not long after watching this video, I was sitting on the Osaka subway train staring unthinkingly at the advertisement across from me, when I suddenly realized it had something to do with "worms". A few seconds with the translator taught me that the word "senchū" (線虫) means "nematode". The characters are literally "line bug" (with 虫 having a broader meaning than in English, and includes other creepy-crawlies like worms). Two common characters that provide a graphic image. Very easy to remember. I located the website, and it turns out that it was an advertisement for early cancer screening using nematodes. They seem to be attracted to the urine of affected people or something. They even have a cute little anime nematode character. Search out "N-Nose" if you're interested in seeing it.

My interests usually revolve around engineering, physics, and inorganic technical topics in general. Occasionally, I stumble across the hallway into biology... And I am utterly shocked by what I find. The human body is composed of some 30 to 40 trillion cells, and this doesn't include all of the billions and billions of bacteria and the additional non-zero number of foreign plant, animal, protazoa, viruses, fungal, and whatever other organisms find their way into our complicated meat machine. How the hell we exist in the same world as nematodes and flatworms, and can contemplate the existence and machinations of funny little aeolosoma... I can't possibly comprehend that. This tiny planet we live on is astounding.
