Solution

Break Down the Problem

  1. Identify the analogy structure: Aquatic arthropods are related to gills.
  2. Determine what is the equivalent respiratory structure for earthworms.

Relevant Concepts

  1. Aquatic arthropods use gills for respiration in water.
  2. Earthworms are terrestrial organisms that require a different structure for respiration.

Analysis and Detail

  1. Aquatic arthropods: They extract oxygen from water using gills.
  2. Earthworm's respiration: Earthworms respire through their skin (dermal respiration), which requires moisture.

Verify and Summarize

  • Therefore, the correct analogy structure for earthworms is their skin.

Final Answer

Earthworm : Skin

This problem has been solved
