Solution

The correct option is C 10 and 11
Earthworm is hermaphrodite i.e testes and ovaries are present in the same individual. There are two pairs of testes present in the 10th and 11th segments. Their vasa deferentia run up to the 18th segment where they join the prostatic duct.
So the correct answer is '10 and 11'.
