What are the organs of locomotion in Annelids?

Open in App

Solution

Locomotion in Annelids is carried by three agents:
(a) Locomotor structures: Setae, suckers, and parapodia
(b) Body musculatures
(c) Hydrostatic skeleton
In different annelidan species, locomotion is not caused by any individual locomotory agent, but it is the resultant outcome of a coordinated effort of all those three agencies.
