how is segmentation possible and how is atp formed
Segmentation in morphology, a series of semi-repetitive segments; in developmental biology, a process of morphogenesis that divides a metazoan body into a series of semi-repetitive segments and ATP is formed By the ADP molecule adding another Phosphate molecule and the energy is stored in the bond.
ur question is not clear which segment?
each segment of earthworm has
Except for the mouth and anal segments, each segment carries bristle-like hairs called lateral setae[5] used to anchor parts of the body during movement;[6] species may have four pairs of setae on each segment or more than eight sometimes forming a complete circle of setae per segment.[5] Special ventral setae are used to anchor mating earthworms by their penetration into the bodies of their mates.
Segmentation(metamerism) allows for each part of the worm to be somewhat independent, allowing the worm to continue to function even if part of it is damaged. The segments also prevent motion from being transferred through the coelum(body cavity), allowing for smoother motion. Each segment is called a metamere. Biologists have studied how certain worm body parts always occur in the same numbered set of metameres.
