Solution

The correct option is B 5 pairs
Earthworm does not have a true heart as it is an invertebrate, but they have five pairs of aortic arches that are referred to as the heart.
These arches are present in the anterior region of the body and they connect ventral and dorsal vessels and pump blood throughout the body.

Thus, the correct option is B.
