Solution

The correct option is A Store sperms
In Earthworm there are four pairs of spermathecae which are located in the 6th - 9th segments one pair in each segment. They receive and store spermatazoa during copulation. One pair of ovaries is attached at the inter-segmental septum of the 12th and 13th segments.
So the correct answer is 'Store sperms'.
